Bug Description

I got this output on Trisquel 5.0. With encrypted swap on BB 0.9.0

Unexpected output:
args='['swapoff', '-a', '-v']'
stdout='swapoff on /dev/dm-0
swapoff on /dev/mapper/cryptswap1
'
stderr=''

I'm guessing that BB has no way of getting input from the user to disable the encrypted swap, so the default setting in the code is to output this information?

If you are root, do these commands toggle the swap without user input (e.g., typing in a password)?

swapoff /dev/mapper/cryptswap1
swapon /dev/mapper/cryptswap1
