Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

Marc,
Glad you replied to say I was wrong: it is only by knowing what was a
potential threat do I get any more accurate in making reports. I am
sure this is the case for many who would have had a mild panic to see
errors when installing the cryptographic filesystem. I had been on the
borderline of sending and now know not to be overly concerned.
