[Bug 298421] [NEW] Cannot delete a single user ~/Private folder

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

Using the command "ecryptfs-setup-private" generates a new folder inside
the home-area, after logout and coming back - so it's intended and
works.

Having more users than one, every one can do as well in his/her home-
area -> it works too!

But if one of these wants to delete the ~/Private folder separate, there
is no command to do so else to deinstall the package "ecryptfs-utils" on
common operating system totally". I'm missing a command as "ecryptfs-
delete-private" available for each user.
