[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#714952: cryptsetup: The dropbear portion of README.Debian does not mention host key issues

[Karl O. Pinc]

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.4.3-4
Severity: minor
Tags: patch


Hi,

Section 8 of the README.Debian does not mention that the dropbear
default is to use host keys in the initramfs that differ from the
system's regular host keys.  This can cause problems with host key
checking.

The attached patch README.Debian.patch (patched against sid
cryptsetup-1.6.1) adds additional information regarding this issue.

Regards,

Karl O. Pinc
