Just for my own education, how come systemd-cryptsetup was already 
included in netinst ? As a Recommends: of other included packages ?

Thanks.

Tested successfully with the two following use cases:
- manual partitioning with encrypted /home -> bug fixed
- guided partitioning with encrypted LVM -> no regression

Note: users who install without any encryption and later add an 
encrypted volume will still need to install systemd-cryptsetup in 
addition to cryptsetup, so Trixie's behaviour will not be the same as 
previous releases. The only way to keep the same behaviour would be to 
always install systemd-cryptesetup.
