CRYPTSETUP setting deprecated warning

When updating the apt repositories:

sudo apt-get update

I'm informed that the current CRYPTSETUP settings are deprecated:

WARNING: Setting CRYPTSETUP in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf is deprecated and will stop working in the future. Use /etc/cryptsetup-initramfs/conf-hook instead.

This page offers a workaround.  However, is this something to be addressed in a future BL distribution release?

Re: CRYPTSETUP setting deprecated warning

This is coming from live-build, which is used to build the BL iso files.
At some point it needs to move its initramf setting for cryptsetup from /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/cryptsetup to /etc/cryptsetup-initramfs/conf-hook as the warning message says.

If such a fix has not arrived in live-build by the time the current config stops working, then I guess BL will have to consider a patch, but it would be better if the fix comes from their end IMO.
