Bug Description
Apologies for doing this in my main system rather than whilst installing in the VM. This is a long-standing bug at least in the Kubuntu themed installer; when one chooses "Guided: use entire disk and set up LVM and encryption" two boxes but there but no labels to indicate that a key should be typed into each of them.
This may be obvious to anyone used to doing this, but it is not obvious to anyone trying this for the first time, and blind users will be unable to do this at all.
I should have reported this one years ago but the fact that it still has not been fixed has prompted me to finally do so.
