That one looks like a different bug. I don't have a problem with
cryptsetup detecting an existing unencrypted swap partition because
there isn't one. The problem I have is that once it's decrypted the
partition it finds a previously existing encrypted swap partition which
it complains about.

cryptsetup should just use the previously existing swap partition as-is
when it finds it.

I've installed that version and this bug isn't fixed yet.
