Bug Description
I did try to search but did not find a duplicate of this bug for Ubuntu 12.04.2 x86 64-bit. This started after an update some time last week.
I have a disk, using LUKS encryption, in my HP docking station connected via SATAII internal to the dock. Up until last week the behavior was as expected:
* Click on the drive in nautilus
* LUKS password is retreived from key ring, and drive is unlocked
* Drive mounts so I can perform local backups
The behavior now is:
* Click on the drive in nautilus
* LUKS password is retreived from key ring, and drive is unlocked
* root password is requested
The last step obviously fails because the password is unknown to the user by default. I am not interested in "enabling" the root account with a user-known password.
