Release note added at <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes#Apparmor%20profiles%20incompatible%20with%20ecryptfs>:

  Apparmor profiles incompatible with ecryptfs

  When using encrypted home directories together with apparmor in enforcing mode, apparmor will deny access to certain files unexpectedly because the Linux kernel sees the process as accessing the file via both the unencrypted and encrypted paths (359338). As a workaround, users can modify their apparmor profiles under /etc/apparmor.d/ to grant permissions to @{HOME}/.Private/**.
