[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#583568: cryptsetup: clarify that the check-option is for the target device

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.1.1-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi Jonas.

May I suggest that you clarify in the manpage, that check is done on
"the target device".... just as you do it with precheck ("...the source
device").

It's already more or less obvious for the expert,.. but I guess that
way it's even more perfect :)

Cheers,
Chris.
