ok, just fixed that one.

great. i'm looking forward to include it in the package.

do you have an assumption when maximilian will add cryptroot suport to
initramfs? if that doesn't take too long, i could simply wait until he
uploaded a fixed version. that would at least ensure that a working
version is in sid when cryptsetup with initramfs support enters sid.

i could also conflict with any initramfs version prior to the fixed one,
but i don't like that idea. as you said, it's not very likely that
anyone tries cryptroot support of initramfs without reading about it
first.
