Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

In the situation where you are in your $HOME or ~/Private, and this directory is unmounted, you can run:
 $ ecryptfs-mount-private

Assuming this mount succeeds, you are good to go.  However, you are
still in your unmounted home/private directory.

To solve this, you need to cd to this directory again.  This should
definitely be fixed by a one-liner in ecryptfs-mount-private.
