Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.0.6-7
Severity: normal

Running "cryptdisks_start target" doesn't return a sensible exit code
(always returns zero), if the operation fails:

ermintrude:~# cryptdisks_start cryptvz1 && echo 'exit code says OK!'
Starting crypto disk...mount: special device /dev/disk/by-uuid/484E-9B0A
does not exist
cryptvz1: keyfile not found (warning).
cryptvz1 (invalid key)...done.
exit code says OK!
