Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

Using a LiveCD, attempting to backup my encrypted /home (ecryptfs protected but 
not mounted) onto an external drive (NTFS Format) I am unable to either copy 
the files directly or create an archive using file-roller.

I have attached the errors that both programs give. I think this could be 
solved if we can find a way to have ecryptfs save the encrypted data one image 
file (with an 8.3 char name) which is easy to backup and manipulate.
