I activated auto-login, rebooted, and as expected ended up with ~/Private being unmounted. It had one file in it:

  lrwxrwxrwx 1 martin martin 28 2008-10-28 16:54 THIS DIRECTORY HAS BEEN UNMOUNTED TO PROTECT YOUR DATA -- Run mount.ecryptfs_private to mount again -> /sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private

There was no "readme.txt" file as I would have expected from the debdiff. Also, running this script (or mount.ecryptfs_private directly) did not work, I wasn't prompted for my password and the process just exited with status 1. The only way to recover was to open a terminal and do "su - martin".

So this doesn't work for me.
