Summary: cryptsetup incompatible changes from 10.1 to 10.2 (LUKS
not used)
Product: openSUSE 10.2
Version: Final
Platform: i586
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Basesystem
AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: walter.haidinger@xxxxxx
QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx


After upgrading from 10.1 to 10.2 I was unable to access my dm_crypt
partitions with the cryptsetup provided with 10.2. LUKS was not used.

Note: Using cryptsetup of 10.1 (while running 10.2) works.

Therefore I assume that there are some incompatible changes in
cryptsetup. This really should be worth a note in the release notes, IMHO!

I can see just two ways to resolve the problem for now:
a. keep cryptsetup from 10.1 or
b. recreate the encrypted partitions from scratch with 10.2 cryptsetup
and restore from backup afterwards.

Needless to say that the latter is a bit tedious...
