This should only pop-up if you're configured to use an encrypted $HOME
or encrypted $HOME/Private directory.
Are you sure that you're not configured to do so?
When you're logged in, what is the output of the 'mount | grep ecryptfs'
command?
Do you have a ~/.ecryptfs directory?

Bug description:
After running 'update-manager -d', the 'Information Available' window opened
and provided the following message:
=======================
Record your encryption passphrase
To encrypt your home directory or "Private" folder, a strong passphrase has
been autogenerated. Usually your directory is unlocked with your user password,
but if you ever need to manually recover this directory, you will need this
passphrase. Please print or write it down and store it in a safe location.
You can run the "ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase" command now to do this. Enter your
user password at the "Passphrase" prompt.
=======================
Run this action now | Close |
=======================
I don't believe I chose to encrypt my fs when I installed Jaunty!
So I click the 'Run this action now' button and get a terminal window prompt:
Passphrase:
I enter a passphrase, and the terminal disappears. The previous 'information
available' message remains on the screen and doesn't acknowledge that anything
has happened. In fact, I can press the 'Run this action now' button as many
times as I like, and enter different passphrases. I don't get the point of
this.
Also, after entering a passphrase, it doesn't confirm that I didn't make a typo
by asking me to re-enter it.
