You don't have to do this as root, you can do this as the non-privileged user with:
$ ecryptfs-umount-private $ chmod 700 Private $ rm -rf ~/.ecryptfs ~/.Private ~/Private Understanding, of course, that you're blowing away any and all data in those directories. I don't think that I'm going to provide a utility to do this. However, I could perhaps create a utility, ecryptfs-delete-private, as you suggest, that prints these 3 steps to the screen, with appropriate safeguard warnings. Would this suffice? :-Dusitn -- Cannot delete a single user ~/Private folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298421 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
