Public bug reported:

Recutils should include features to encrypt/decrypt specific fields.
These operations are described in the recfix manual

      --encrypt
              encrypt confidential fields in the specified file.

       --decrypt
              decrypt confidential fields in the specified file.

These operations used to be supported in the recutils version in trusty.
However they are compiled out of the utopic version.

As a consequence, all the rec files prepared with previous versions of
ubuntu and including encrypted fields cannot be accessed in utopic.
