Hello,
I had some problems with restoring a luks2 partition after using, for
example, mkfs.ntfs because it only leaves a 2nd JSON area without a
secondary binary header, which I had to create myself. What if there was
a function in libblkid that allows one to determine if there is a 2nd
JSON and if there is a chance of recovery? Because as I see here,
automatically repairing
https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/issues/750 is apparently
missing due to the lack of checking if there is an area here in
libblkid. Also this seems to be a pretty popular problem on the internet
when it comes to installing other operating systems. Would it be okay to
add such a feature?
Best regards, Vitalii
