Bug Description

Installing Ubuntu 14.04 -64 Desktop and selecting Encrypted Home Directory, gives a defunkt encrypted swap partition. System Monitor says Swap not available.

Have tested on both Bare Metal installation and on VM. Same result. No working Swap Partition.

The only way to get the Swap back, is to remove the encryption and format the Swap Partition as a regular unencrypted Swap. But that leaves the computer unprotected and unsecure.

summary: - Encrypted Swap in not working
+ Encrypted Swap in 14.04 is not working
