[Pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#397450: cryptsetup: tries to check readability of key even if keyscript is set

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.0.4-3
Severity: serious

If an entry in /etc/crypttab specifies the keyscript= option, the key
(third option in the file) is just used as an argument to that keyscript
and can be set to anything (what it actually means depends on the
keyscript itself).

However, the init.d scripts check for readability of the key and refuses
to try to setup the mapping if it's not readable.

I will commit a fix for this later today, updated package should be
included in Etch.
