This isn't really a duplicate of bug #313812. The home directory is not being unmounted. Bug #313812 concerns the key-ring. I created a user (zip) with an encrypted home folder, logged in, started a terminal and verified that the encrypted home folder was mounted. I then logged out and logged in as another user with root (sudo) privileges and checked what was mounted. "/home/.ecryptfs/zip/.Private" was still mounted in "/home/zip". I then checked "/dev/shm/ecryptfs-zip- Private" and the value was 1. I then checked what processes owned by "zip" were running. root@braun-asus:~# ps -u zip PID TTY TIME CMD 4173 ? 00:00:00 systemd 4183 ? 00:00:00 (sd-pam) 4199 ? 00:00:00 dbus-daemon 4329 ? 00:00:00 gvfsd 4336 ? 00:00:00 gvfsd-fuse 4369 ? 00:00:00 ibus-daemon 4416 ? 00:00:00 ibus-dconf 4465 ? 00:00:00 dconf-service 4468 ? 00:00:00 ibus-engine-sim 4618 ? 00:00:00 evolution-sourc 4633 ? 00:00:00 libertined 4672 ? 00:00:00 goa-daemon 4708 ? 00:00:00 goa-identity-se 4757 ? 00:00:01 mission-control 4810 ? 00:00:00 gvfs-udisks2-vo 4825 ? 00:00:00 gvfs-mtp-volume 4829 ? 00:00:00 gvfs-goa-volume 4839 ? 00:00:00 gvfs-gphoto2-vo 4848 ? 00:00:00 gvfs-afc-volume 4904 ? 00:00:00 gconfd-2 4911 ? 00:00:00 gvfsd-trash 4937 ? 00:00:00 gvfsd-burn 4955 ? 00:00:00 gvfsd-metadata 4992 ? 00:00:00 zeitgeist-daemo 5000 ? 00:00:00 zeitgeist-fts I also checked what files were open by processes owned by "zip" - 164! So it is reasonable that, under these conditions, the encrypted home remained mounted. The problem is that all these process are persisting after log out. I suspect getting rid of them will solve the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/507150 Title: Encrypted home directory doesn't always dismount after logout.
