I did a fresh install of Leap 42.1, and after I logged in with only user, I
changed the regular home of the user to an encrypted home using YAST. After
logging out and then trying to log in, nothing happens, system seems to freeze
and I have to escape using Ctl-Alt-Backspace twice.
Since I had only one user and root login is not possible anymore to fix things,
I did a new install and created more users so I could play with it. Again,
changing a user to an encrypted home makes it impossible for this user to log
in. Journalctl shows the pam login was OK, and after that there is nothing in
the log.

Before I did the fresh install, I upgraded my 13.2 to Leap, with encrypted
homes, and I was able to log in. But because of crashes and a mixed kde4/kde5
mess I decided to do the fresh install to see if this fixes it. So it seems it
has to do with the newly created encrypted file, maybe the user's home was not
copied?

I would appreciate any help.
