Bug Description

***
Please change this bug from gedit to the correct product.
***

On the screen where you define your user name, computer name, id, etc., you no longer have the option of asking for an encrypted home directory.

On the trivial side, note that the installer artwork is still aardvark and once installation is complete, the desktop is also aardvark.

That is correct and expected behaviour for 18.04.

If you wish to use encryption, please use the full disk encryption option on the partitioning screen instead.
