Personally, I haven't been affected by this bug anymore.
(Also, I stopped having my HOME encrypted, and now I use full disk
encryption, which is a better solution anyhow)
Now, when you right click on an image and "Set as wallpaper", it'll get
copied to ~/Pictures/Wallpapers this folder is world
Is there anyone working on this bug?

By the way, default dynamic wallpaper (e.g. the blue stripes, changing
with time) are not displayed either.
Maybe the first image (or the last used) should be displayed.

A workaround is to copy the desired wallpaper into /usr/share/backgrounds and
rename it using one of the filenames of the default files found there:
$ sudo mv /usr/share/backgrounds/Delicate_Petals_by_lefthandgergo.jpg
/usr/share/backgrounds/Delicate_Petals_by_lefthandgergo.bkp
$ sudo cp
So... I just installed Precise and I saw this cool new feature of
showing up the wallpaper in the login screen... I thought it was great
until I used a custom wallpaper so I have this problem too. I have
encrypted my home directory but I still want to show my non-default
wallpaper (located in

Agree with Carlo, lets just copy the image to '/usr/share/backgrounds-
current' for example. We live in 2012, hard disk space is not that rare.

Thanks but it's not very useful telling others what they must fix,

Copying would mean you would made any background public where users
might not want to share their background

Which is a moot point, since the original background file likely resides
somewhere in ~/Pictures, which is world-readable by default.

Most definitely, since this is a behaviour that annoys people and has an
apparently unpredictable pattern (in reality, it's just that the
partition is encrypted, but nothing prompts the user), this must be
fixed.

The issue is coming quite often, we should try to figure if we want to

My monitor is 1280*1024
The image I want is 700*467 and is jpg.

I don't really know what happen behind the hood, but when i use

Any idea about this?

Couldn't the Appearance setting tool have a script which would change
the dconf value? I'm mainly saying it would be a workaround, having set
the wallpaper myself from within the session.
That said, I haven't tried it for an encrypted Home directory, so I
can't confirm it would fix it.

If I may, there is a fix to this, but it requres the use of gsettings or
the Dconf editor.
If there was a way to parse the wallpaper file name as it is being set
and send it to the gsettings command, this would be easily fixed.
The command would look like:
gsettings set

That's not the problem, and it wouldn't help. We know the name of the
wallpaper, but if the file is not accessible to the lightdm user it
still couldn't display
Well Martin the issue has been discussed a bit in another bug (looking
for the number), even if the file is publicly available that doesn't
work because gnome-desktop store your background in .cache which has
permissions set to 700 by default so even if the image can be read the
actual copy used
I this case, why doesn't the greeter fall back to reading the actual
file instead of the cache?

Well I guess that's what this bug is about ;-) The current
implementation just store in accountsservice the url of the file used by
the desktop which is in .cache, the fact that the dir is 700 and such
not accessible to the greeter was probably overlooked

My gut feeling is that we should not do this. If you protect your files
to not be world-readable, or they are on an ecryptfs container, the
greeter should not subvert this and copy them to other places.
