Very sorry for that!  That specific error was caused by a race condition
after partitioning (the test was trying to use the partition before the
block device was created) and is fixed in
https://salsa.debian.org/cryptsetup-team/cryptsetup/-/commit/39e9cb8baf69f1b126a636026883569317adf7fb .

At https://salsa.debian.org/cryptsetup-team/cryptsetup/-/commit/cc175feed03319b2544382699e812fe7c67fd0ee
I also added a timeout on each qemu command so failed setups won't wait
for the global debci timeout.  Hope this is an acceptable fix from your
perspective :-)

Cheers
