[Bug 331085] Re: prevent ecryptfs-utils from being uninstalled if in use
Replace '[ -d "/home/$i/.ecryptfs" -o -L "/home/$i/.ecryptfs" ]' with '[
-d "/home/$i/.ecryptfs" ] || [ -L "/home/$i/.ecryptfs" ]' for
portability. (Actually, do you even need to do both checks? -d returns
true if given a symlink to a directory.)
Otherwise I think this is fine.

Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: In Progress
Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils
It's very easy to do:
$ sudo apt-get remove ecryptfs-utils
In Ubuntu jaunty, if your account is set up with an encrypted home directory, this will make it impossible (okay, very, very difficult) to even log in to your system.
The ecryptfs-utils packaging needs a prerm check to determine if ecryptfs-utils is in use, before allowing the remove to continue.
