Public bug reported:

In Ubuntu 12.04 (and maybe in 11.10 too) if you have an encrypted home
directory then logging in from GDM by fingerprint does not work, the
home directory cannot be decrypted. For non-encrypted users works fine
but for encrypted after the fingerprint is recognized, it tries to start
Ubuntu but seems to break and comes back to the lightDM login. With the
password works fine.

I have libfprint0: Installed: 1:0.4.0+git20120202-0ppa1~precise2

Normally it should allow to login but it can access and comes back to
the ligthDM.
