Mandos client on ubuntu 20.04 failed because cryptroot file is missing

[Florian Coulmier]

Thanks for your hints Teddy. This was our mistake. The version shipped in Ubuntu 20.4 is actually v1.8.9. Our bootstrap script was installing v1.7.19 manually.

Sorry for the noise.

    That bug was fixed in Mandos 1.7.20-1.  I'm not sure what the best way
    is to upgrade to a newer version in Ubuntu.
