Title:
  Cannot access the home folder within a chroot of a system with
  encrypted home

Status in eCryptfs:
  Confirmed
Status in schroot package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm trying to run a local Launchpad instance on a chroot to test a
  script that queries the LP database for translation data. This worked
  quite well on my PC, following the instructions below:

  https://dev.launchpad.net/Running/Schroot

  However, I'm trying this on my laptop as well, which has got an
  encrypted home folder, and I don't quite manage to mount the encrypted
  dir inside the chroot.

  What I did was to follow the instructions above again, then I went into
  the chroot with 'schroot -c my-chroot', installed ecryptfs-utils and
  tried to run ecryptfs-mount-private, but it did not seem to do anything
  (it didn't ask for a password, either).
