Bug Description
Lubuntu enables zram support on our live images. Currently, zram is caught by the unsafe swap detection performed by this package (or similar). This is causing Encrypted LVM installs to fail. Unmounting all zram mount points result in a successful install.

I agree. I think it is sane for partman-auto-crypto to unmount zram or skip the checks for it.
Is zram still in use, in the installed systems too? Does it affect encryption at rest? (e.g. does zram memory remain unencrypted upon hybernate?)
