Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and help to improve Ubuntu.
This is the standard behavior of programs that prompt for passwords at the commandline. If there's no prompt on your screen and you're typing, there is *no cryptsetup process running* that can intercept this text and prevent it from being shown. In lucid this is largely addressed by having cryptsetup talk to plymouth, which mediates all boot-time interaction; but in any case where you're being prompted directly, this is clearly not a bug of cryptsetup, it's the expected and normal behavior. ** Changed in: cryptsetup (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- text echoed to console after failed encrypted disk passphrase entry https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370567 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
