I'll take a look at this. I need to setup a Xubuntu VM though.
Thanks for the report.

Bug description:
This bug report is similar to LP bug #359997, but I don't believe it to be
duplicate. I performed a clean installation of Xubuntu 9.04 alternate, and
chose to encrypt my home directory.
Upon completing the installation, I was presented with the lightbulb icon in my
panel, indicating that information was available. I clicked the icon, read the
instructions, and then selected, "Run this action now." However, nothing
happened after clicking on the button. A terminal window did not open, and I
was not presented with an error. Perhaps the "run this action now" button is
calling gnome-terminal or something that is not installed on Xubuntu, but this
should examined.
Fortunately, I was able to research the issue, and I found the aforementioned
bug report. Entering, "ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase
~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase" gave me the necessary prompt, and I was able to
get my autogenerated strong passphrase.
