Comment 3 for bug 1602680

Hello - Sorry for the trouble you're having.

I've downgraded a clean, up to date 12.04 amd64 VM to libnss3 and libnss3-1d version 2:3.21-0ubuntu0.12.04.3. Then I set up a new user with encrypted home (`adduser --encrypt-home foo`). I verified that I can log in and access the encrypted home directory and then upgraded libnss3 and libnss3-1d to version 2:3.23-0ubuntu0.12.04.1. I could still successfully log in and access the encrypted home after upgrading.

In addition, I locally rebuilt ecryptfs-utils in Precise as there are some test cases which get run as part of the build process which excercise the same code that you're having trouble with. They all still pass with the newer NSS version.

Did anything else change on your system around that time? Do you have any other information which may be helpful in reproducing the bug so that we can work towards getting you a fix?

I'm going to make this a public, non-security bug since there's no vulnerability. It will be helpful for other affected users to comment on the report.
