Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears
to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security
issue since this bug does not directly cause loss of data/privacy.

You can use 'adduser --encrypt-home' to add a user with an encrypted
home directory. It would be a nice feature if the gnome-control-center
could configure encrypted home directories, but that is a missing
feature and not a vulnerability.

** Visibility changed to: Public

** This bug is no longer flagged as a security vulnerability

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
