This is still the state of affairs as of Yakkety (ubiquity 16.10.4); also confirmed for Xenial (ubiquity 2.21.63.2) and Trusty (ubiquity 2.18.8.13)
IMHO Fabrizio makes a convincing case of why this is useful functionality in some cases. I agree with both ejik and Fabrizio that the way the installer currently works can be confusing though. I’d suggest that, when a user selects home folder encryption having previously selected LUKS encryption for the partition /home is on, an alert window be popped to remind the user that the partition their home folder is on is already encrypted, and what the use case of using eCryptFS over LUKS is. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1307003 Title: Ubiquity installer allows encrypting home folder even if /home is already on an LUKS-encrypted partition To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1307003/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
