Hi Tyler Hicks,

I've tried compiling ecryptfs-utils-108 source code several times on Centos7.0 and Ubuntu 12.04 and execute command $ecryptfs-setup-private, then it display some information on the screen (see attachment): "setreuid: Operation not permitted ERROR: Could not mount private ecryptfs directory".

So the only resolution I figure out is setting the "s" bit manually on the /usr/sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private binary. The command is $sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private. Then I'm able to setup private directory.That might be what they wanted to report, I guess.
