[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#568342: cryptsetup: password not recognised anymore since update of initramfs

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.1.0~rc2-1
Severity: important

"No key available with this passphrase.
cryptsetup: cryptsetup failed, bad password or options?"

This problem first occured when I upgraded  my kernel from
linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-amd64 2.6.32-4 -> 2.6.32-5
on 18th of January with aptitude. After that, the 2.6.32 kernel did not
recognise my password anymore (and yes, I'm very sure that I didn't
misstype it as I tried it on different days and always this one failed
while 2.6.31-1-amd64 still worked).
Now I did a "update-initramfs -k all -u && update-grub2" today and now
the 2.6.31 does not recognise my password anymore as well. However, the
initrd.img-2.6.31-1-amd64.bak still works perfectly fine.

I uploaded the broken and the working versions here:
http://krtek.asta.uni-luebeck.de:8080/~tux/bugreport/initrd.img-2.6.31-1-amd64
http://krtek.asta.uni-luebeck.de:8080/~tux/bugreport/initrd.img-2.6.31-1-amd64.working
(sorry my mailserver couldn't cope with those large files, that's why I
didn't attach them here directly)

Thanks for the help.

Cheers, Linus
