Thanks for the heads up, though. I haven't yet investigated the alternatives. I guess I will be rolling back the encryption and purging the incriminated software. I have nagging doubts about my encrypted swap and whether I need to roll that back, too. I guess I will. Another, less serious, gotcha for those inveterate upgraders and newbies who don't read the release notes is that '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' is no longer a valid mechanism for defining device names. This mechanism (automagically) permitted users upgrading from Wheezy to Stretch (where the old-style names were deprecated) to continue using their obsolete, legacy interface names (eth0, anyone?). Me, I migrated to the new-fangled denominations as per the instructions at the link below to obviate the eventual loss of network connectivity, which is a bummer when you don't what you're doing and all the help available is at the other end of the severed wire. https://www.debian.org/releases///buster/s390x/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#migrate-interface-names The Wanderer and other recalcitrants allergic to progress (just kidding) can still resort to the 'net.ifname=0 kernel' command line option for relief. > Regards, > Andrea. > >
