Dear Maintainer,

On my system, the command ecryptfs-migrate-home fails to create a working 
setup, despite following instructions at 
https://wiki.debian.org/TransparentEncryptionForHomeFolder .
When login as the encrypted user, it refuses to mount the encrypted folder, and 
syslog logs: “gdm-password]: Failed to detect wrapped passphrase version: 
Permission denied”.
The command had created a folder /home/.ecryptfs that was only readable by 
root. I added “all” permissions to read and traverse, and the problem was 
solved. I suspect that the command ecryptfs-migrate-home should make sure that 
the folder /home/.ecryptfs/ has the right permissions.
