Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=karmic
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu karmic (development branch)"
Kernel (update) 2.6.31-10-generic, i386 - same using amd64.
Gnome desktop (gdm)
By using an encrypted home directory (ecryptfs-utils), the users
pictures ('~/.face' respectively '/usr/share/pixmaps/faces/**') are
not shown at login-screen, as it is default without encryption.
This seems to be a general bug of 'ecryptfs-utils'.
