Thanks for the poke!  I'm not specially fond of that breakout link .so
/usr/lib/$DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH/libcryptsetup.so → /lib/$DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH/…
(that also causes lintian to spew a ‘breakout-link’ warning).  I'm also
not so fond of that sed rule :-P  Another way to fix the issue you
reported is to move libcryptsetup.so to /lib/$DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH/… where
the versioned link lives.  Does ec9b7931 help?  (That now causes lintian
to spew a ‘lacks-unversioned-link-to-shared-library’, but I'll silence
it following the reasoning from #843932.)

Cheers,
