Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.0.6-6
Severity: normal

'cryptsetup luksOpen' fails with the message
'Command failed: No key available with this passphrase'
when the cause of the problem is tht the dm-crypt kernel module is not
loaded.
This is very confusing, and meant an unnecessary long debugging session
for me.
(In this case it would haven been rather easy to detect, since
/dev/mapper/control didn't exist).
Just observed on a fresh Lenny install (with RC1 installer).
