Title:
  gnome-about-me changing password doesn't work proper (encrypted home)

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  Hi,

  I installed two days ago the desktop computer of my father with Ubuntu
  10.10. I enabled the encrypted home directory and set a dummy
  password.

  After that my father starts to use his brand new computer. One of the
  first things he did was changing his password, doing this trough
  System->Preferences->About me. But starting the next day, the
  decryption of his home directory failed. After I bring back the
  password to the dummy password every thing works well.

  Thanks for reading, I hope you can help.

  Martin
