[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I too have been affected by this bug for a long time and hope it will be fixed one day.
For end-users, attached is a drop-in workaround you can use to make guix utilize the old cryptsetup build. It's sloppy, but at least the system can boot again.
Thanks for the research, Simon.
