Public bug reported:

Some days ago I've installed ubuntu 13.04 beta2 release on a clean
partition I had.

I've chosen in the installer to not touch my home partition as it's
encrypted and I doubted it would not understand that.

I chose the root partition and asked to encrypt my swap partition.

After installation I couldn't open my home partition any more. It keep
saying:

  hugo@scare:~$ sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/ubuntu/home home_crypt
Device /dev/ubuntu/home is not a valid LUKS device.

I don't know what the installer thought about my partition but I expected it to 
not touch that.
I am still trying to not go crazy about it but I didn't have the luks partition 
header on my backups and I have almost zero hope on recovering that. I just 
expect it to be fixed in a near future.

It seems  ubuntu installer still has little support for lvm+luks
partitions on installer.
