'Command "check" not recognized' when running 'tomb-qt-create'.

[logavanc]

After I launch the Qt GUI, I click on the "Next" button and immediately get an error (screen shot attached). The command line output is as follows

$> tomb-qt-create tomb [W] Command "check" not recognized. tomb . Try -h for help. tomb [W] Command "check" not recognized. tomb . Try -h for help.

git log -- extras/qt shows when the Qt GUI was last updated:

This proves it unmantained, so it's normal that it fails. The "check" command might have existed in the past, but it doesn't any more. I think the Qt GUI (and maybe other extras) should be removed, unless somebody is going to update and mantain them.

same here on mint 17

The check command was removed in 671350585ea3535835be04b3867aca60d30471f3 (see lines 368 and 2134). That command was checking whether the swap was activated, and in that case, bail out. It doesn't make sense anymore: since then, the _check_swap function was introduced and embedded in the create command.

Maybe that step should be removed. Alternatively, check_swap could be run by itself to provide a specific error message (unencrypted swap). I would favor the former option.

yes, qt gui is left unmaintained (and zulucrypt does the job) so I will reorg extras/ that are left unmaintained into extras/incomplete/

Sounds good.
