    [PLASMA 5] encrypted home, change password

    I had a problem with changing the password (via the settings GUI) while using an encrypted home-directory on kde (kubuntu 18.4) and wonder if someone else had this.

    After having changed the password, I could not successfully log in again. Only to terminal only (not kde), I had to trigger the re-encoding of the encryption following the advice on https://askubuntu.com/questions/2814...hange-ecryptfs
    Once I did this, also the password-managed needed to be updated to the new password. Is this just me or a common issue? (If common, where could I file a bug for this? sorry, while not being new to linux, being new to thinking about bug-filing)
