And I should mention the precise symptoms: at boot, there is no Plymouth passphrase entry and the console displays error messages about not being able to mount the volume group.

cryptsetup 2:2.1.0-5 had the following:
Depends: cryptsetup-initramfs (>= 2:2.0.3-1), cryptsetup-run (>= 2:2.0.3-1)

cryptsetup 2:2.1.0-6 has no dependency on cryptsetup-initramfs so the latter will be autoremoved if only cryptsetup was marked manual by the installer.

The affected sid system was installed with a testing installer in April 2017. I do not know what the current installer marks as manual for LUKS/LVM installations but the affected system had only cryptsetup marked as manual and was relying on its Depends: cryptsetup-initramfs to boot.

Kind regards,
