Bug Description

hello

My computer is in ubuntu version 18.04.1.
I decided to make ext4 encrypted partitions using a crypto-luks envelope

sudo blkid | grep LUKS
/dev/sda28: UUID="9aaa5da4-ddc2-4243-be35-f3dd0c05407a" TYPE="crypto_LUKS" PARTUUID="2c98f23a-d74f-4ddb-8332-b1be866d0c8c"
/dev/sda37: UUID="223d40d7-6718-4d2e-8add-757a5b90312b" TYPE="crypto_LUKS" PARTUUID="6ec87159-355e-417a-839d-87b665256d94"

boot-info wants to look at its fill rate but it forgets to ask me for the security phrase to allow editing.

He then completely blocks himself. I must kill him then.
If I manually climb this partition. he asks me if the computer has disks in RAIDS technology.
My answer is no. He then uses the LVM software. Which seems to me much worseT

thank you for doing something.
I think you should not try to read the contents of this type of partition. security requires!

Thx Bougon for the report about LUKS.
Concerning the fact that boot-info should not use LVM in certain conditions, please can you open a new ticket ?

Next versions will not try to open luks, will just suggest user to decrypt.
