** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: gvfs
+ Some encrypted partitions which were created with older versions of
+ cryptsetup (< 1.0.7) are not detected anymore in karmic. The problem is
+ that older cryptsetup does not properly clean the superblock of the
+ partition and this might leave bogus filesystem signatures.
  
- An encrypted external harddrive is not mounting automatically any more
- (e.g. like in 9.04).
+ Karmic is more precise on these signatures and gets confused when
+ multiple filesystem signatures are found from single partition and
+ refuses to automatically do anything.
  
- It mounts after unlocking it over the terminal with "cryptsetup
- luksOpen".

- Symptom: storage
- Uname: Linux 2.6.31-9-generic i686
+ This might manifest itself as simply as an encrypted external harddrive
+ not mounting automatically any more (e.g. like in 9.04) or more severely
+ like full encrypted root filesystem not found after standard
+ distribution upgrade from jaunty to karmic.
