Package: dracut Version: 043-2 Severity: minor
I'm using dracut + plymouth (0.9.0-9) on sid, and booting my system requires unlocking a LUKS volume. This works fine, except in the graphical plymouth screen that prompts me for my passphrase, I'm not told which volume this prompt is about (it's not even made clear that the prompt is about an encrypted storage volume). With initramfs-tools I was told why I had to type a passphrase.
Now, if I switch to the text interface with ESC, then I see a prompt that displays this missing information.
This is no big deal for me (hence severity << normal), but this might be a more severe UX problem for users who need to unlock multiple LUKS volumes at boot time... especially if the order of the prompts is even-driven and not deterministic.
FWIW, I've reproduced this problem on a clean Fedora 22 installation.
Any idea if that's a bug in dracut, in plymouth, some integration issue between them, or a feature that I'm not (yet) able to make sense of?
This is still reproducible.I think this is related to the missing fonts. As /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth (from the plymouth package) compared to /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/50plymouth/plymouth-populate-initrd.sh installs the dejavu fonts and the fontconfig configuration.
