I added --sysinit to vgchange, as suggested in the manpages when it's being invoked from early system initialisation scripts
(e.g. rc.sysinit or an initrd), before writable filesystems are available. I also installed cryptsetup-initramfs, that appears
not to be a hard dependency of cryptsetup.

debian-installer with disk encryption worked.
