On second thought that was likely incorrect.  The log doesn't show
anything from src:cryptsetup but likely cryptsetup-initramfs was already
upgraded at that point while libcryptsetup12 wasn't.

The package dependency constraints are indeed not strict enough.
cryptsetup-initramfs now assumes neither cryptsetup(8) nor
libcryptsetup.so.12 are linked with libargon2, but since no new symbols
were added in 2.7.2 cryptsetup-bin only has Depends: libcryptsetup12 (>=
2:2.7), and it's therefore possible to upgrade cryptsetup-initramfs
while keeping the old libcryptsetup12.

Upgrading from testing (2:2.6.1-6) works thanks to the Depends:
libcryptsetup12 (>= 2:2.7), but upgrading from ≥2:2.7~, <2:2.7.2-1 may
yield a broken initramfs image if libcryptsetup12 is not upgraded before
cryptsetup-initramfs.
