Hi,
Thanks for the bug report.

I'm not sure this one is osk-sdl's responsibility. Installing osk-sdl
adds that keyscript to disk, but does not modify the crypttab. As far as
I know, this type of configuration is done by the installer for both
Debian and Mobian
(https://gitlab.com/mobian1/calamares-settings-mobian/-/blob/mobian-installer/scripts/calamares-install-bootloader
for example in Mobian) or the user.
I'm not sure I'd want to write a regex that modifies the crypttab
successfully on all systems, especially when osk-sdl doesn't "own" that
file. I'd appreciate some advice if there is a proper way to do this
kind of thing.
