[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#530734: hal asks twice for passphrase of LUKS-encrypted Volumes, fails to setup other crypto-vols afterwards

[Arian Sanusi]

Package: hal
Version: 0.5.12~git20090406.46dc48-2
Severity: normal

HAL asks user for passphrase via DBUS when a luks-encrypted volume is 
detected.
Afterwards the window shows progress in setting up the device and then 
disappears. Immediately afterwards a second look-alike window asking for 
the passphrase appears. If one does not press "Ignore" here, hal tries 
to set the device up a second time and consequently fails. The user is 
shown a failure notice corectly stating "Failed to setup the encrypted 
volume. /dev/sdb2 is already setup?"

Afterwards hal does not setup encrypted devices anymore until one 
restarts the system (restarting one or more of hal, dbus and udev does 
not help). Nothing gets displayed. This ist true for both the same 
device when unplugged and replugged and for other devices. In case one 
chooses to "ignore" the second configuration attempt in the first place, 
it works fine for devices plugged in afterwards.
