So I am not too surprised about --watch (without knowing what it is doing exactly) but I hope it is started during boot using --plymouth although "systemctl cat systemd-ask-password-console.service" does not show that.

If you boot with plymouth enabled, the service activated is systemd-ask-password-plymouth.service, and if it's necessary any password request after switching root, there is also a hanging process (`/usr/bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent --watch --plymouth` in this case).

well either we hard require plymouth or the code should be able to handle missing plymouth.

FTR, there was a regression in Tumbleweed this week related to the plymouth update, but this issue does not have anything to do with plymouth, it's expected behavior. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
