Not safely scriptable

Bug Description

 I'd like to use lufs in a script. However, this is not
possible without major security problems, because the
only way to specify the password is on the command
line, which is then visible for every other user.

It would be really nice to have a --passphrase-fd
option, because -p currently only reads from a tty.

There is no 'lufs' package in Hardy and there hasn't been any activity about this bug ever since it was reported. Maybe it's not supported anymore? I'm closing this bug.
