Dear Maintainer,

the installation of testing (currently stretch) on a machine, with disk encryption... FAILS.

Details:
~~~~~~~~
During the part called
* "Partition disks"
I choose
* "Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM"

then I continue (I select SCSI1) and then
* "All files in one partition (recommended for new users)"

then I select <Yes> (regarding "Write the changes to disks and configure LVM").

THEN IT FAILS with:
"Configuration of encrypted volumes failed"
"An error occurred while configuring encrypted volumes."
"The configuration has been aborted."

Is this a known issue? Or is the problem on my side?

PS:
I've written to debian-user list here:

Thanks.

Hi,

nice <nicesw123@gmail.com> (2015-08-14):

Without looking too much at your issue that's likely #793643;
unfortunately I forgot about it and the upcoming Stretch Alpha 2 release
will also be affected. I plan to have a look at fixing this issue during
DebConf though.

Feel free to follow up and point at this (and the other) bug reports. ;)

Mraw,
KiBi.
