I just removed ecryptfs-utils to see whether the problem would be fixed. I rebooted and now I cannot even log to the system. I got Authentication Failed.

From single-user I tried
passwd mylogin
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
passwd: password unchanged

I tried dpkg-reconfigure libpam-runtime and dpkg-reconfigure -a but nothing changed. I tried both kdm and gdm but still. Please I need any hint to recover my system as soon as possible.

TIA
