[Bug 991139] Re: installation failed in user-setup-encrypted-swap with encrypted home and no swap: cannot stat `/etc/crypttab' : No such file or directory

Could the people reporting that they see this *with* a swap partition
please file a separate bug and attach logs?  Even if they happen to have
similar symptoms, the cause of that problem is not going to be the same
as the cause of this problem - we'll need to diagnose it separately.

Title:
  installation failed in user-setup-encrypted-swap with encrypted home
  and no swap: cannot stat `/etc/crypttab' : No such file or directory

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
   Xubuntu 12.4 LTS. I can`t create a encrypted home directory from the beginning of install. I get: ubi-usersetup failed with exit code 1. 
  This is upon fresh install from USB, I also try to install from CD Xubuntu 12.04 LTS AMD64, same thing in both cases.
  My hardware is: AMD64 
  This is the error that I get in the syslog:

  Apr 29 13:40:32 xubuntu kernel: [372.247596] Intel AES-NI instructions are not detected.
  Apr 29 13:40:33 xubuntu ubiquity: INFO: You do not currently have any swap space defined.

  Apr 29 13:40:33 xubuntu ubiquity[5128]: dbfilter_handle_status: ('ubi-usersetup', 1)

  P.S. I don`t need a swap file, I got 5.GB RAM and the previous version
  of Xubuntu has worked fine without swap.
