This is probably related to #635698 and specifically to the issue I noticed while trying to verify a fix for that issue, that several packages including keyutils and ecryptfs-utils were set so autoremove tries to remove them when it should not do so.
Workaround for now is likely to be to log in as a user who does not use an encrypted home directory but is in the admin group, do sudo apt-get install ecryptfs-utils and then reboot. The real fix is (I suspect) to cause something (lxde? maybe?) to depend on ecryptfs-utils. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653628 Title: package ecryptfs-utils 83-0ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
