I never explicitly installed cryptsetup during my previous ubuntu versions (and I did not choose "encrypt" option), but I always could unlock my luks device. I will check this for 13.10 in a vbox later.
However, even if cryptsetup is not installed by default, in nautiles when it do not find "cryptsetup" it should give some useful infomation (e.g., "cryptsetup is not installed in your system, please install...", or just ask the user whether he would like to install it), rather than giving the useless error message.

By saying UPGRADE, I mean "remove Ubuntu 13.10 and install 14.04", so no logs.
