Public bug reported:
This bug makes sense, given that lightdm would not have access to any
folders in an encrypted home directory. A workaround would be for Ubuntu
to store a copy of each users current wallpaper in system folder that
isn't encrypted.
Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch)
Release: 12.04
lightdm:
Installed: 1.1.9-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 1.1.9-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 1.1.9-0ubuntu1 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
EXPECTED: The Lightdm Greeter should show each user's desktop wallpaper
when that user is selected, regardless of whether or not 1) that user is
using a custom wallpaper instead of a default, and 2) that user's home
directory is encrypted.
WHAT HAPPENS: Lightdm falls back on the default Ubuntu wallpaper for
users with encrypted home directories, because it cannot access the
encrypted wallpaper file.
