What the script does is to check if the user has already written down the random pass-phrase that was generated for the encrypted HDD. A simple work-around is to just make the script believe that the user has already done this. The work-around is creating this file:
The crash is caused by this script:
/usr/share/ ecryptfs- utils/ecryptfs- record- passphrase
which is linked to by:
/var/lib/ update- notifier/ user.d/ ecryptfs- record- passphrase
What the script does is to check if the user has already written down the random pass-phrase that was generated for the encrypted HDD. A simple work-around is to just make the script believe that the user has already done this. The work-around is creating this file:
sudo touch $HOME/. ecryptfs/ .wrapped- passphrase. recorded
It seems the file "/var/lib/ update- notifier/ user.d/ ecryptfs- record- passphrase" is rewritten each time an ACPI (power-related) event is sent.
BTW. to record your HDD encryption password run:
ecryptfs- unwrap- passphrase
