libgcrypt-git prevents encrypted LUKS/LVM to boot
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I compiled the latest development version of libgcrypt (f14fb5b) and installed
in on my ArchLinux system. From that point I was no longer able to boot my
machine that runs and full disk encryption scheme LVM on top of LUKS partition +
encrypted SWAP with automatic random key upon boot.
Boot process gets stuck at the encrypted swap section (x2dswap.device?).

For information my /etc/cryptab contains: enc-swap /dev/sda3
/dev/urandom cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256,size=128,hash=sha512,swap

Event Timeline

You better take that to ArchLinux. We can't debug the system for you. Of
course I will help fixing the problem if you post your findings to gnupg-devel.
