Bug Description

Hallo,

I use Kubuntu 7.10 and I recognized an important bug! It does not show a window to mount my harddrive. I tried Ubuntu 7.10 (and many before) and the new openSUSE 10.3 (KDE of course) and every distribution showed me a window to enter my key and then mount it, but Kubuntu 7.10!
A workaround is to mount it manually with the konsole, but that's of course very time intensitive, so this bug should be fixed very quickly.

Of course it it reproduceable, just plug the usb cable in and out of the usb port, the external harddrive is plugged in! As I said Kubuntu 7.10!

Thank you for your attention!

cryptsetup is a lowlevel tool that does not offer integration into GUIs like KDE. since I don't know enough about kde to know what package should provide this integration, I remove the cryptsetup pacakge from the task list.
