[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#768314: cryptsetup: Passphrase prompt rolls by without stopping (fwd)

[Tomas Pospisek]

reopen 768314
reassign 768314 systemd
tags 768314 + help
thanks

It would be very nice, if concerned people could test systemd from 
experimental with a cryptsetup, so the patches could be maybe backported 
into jessie.

(reopening since this bug is closed and reassigning to systemd,
  since that's currently the scope within which this problem could be
  solved IMHO)
