Title:
  Unavailable swap after installation with /home encryption

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I used to mark checkbox "encrypt /home folder" during installation of
  Ubuntu. Last time I've used it was on Ubuntu 13.04. To the October
  2013 I had to use Windows but I wanted Ubuntu back. So I started
  installing Ubuntu and marked /home encryption checkbox as always. I
  must add that I always make 2 GB swap. After installation on boot I
  saw text "the disk drive for /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 is not ready yet
  or not present". In system monitor I tried to check, how much swap do
  I use, but it shows me that "swap is unavailable". I don't know how to
  repair this. I really need to encrypt my /home folder and swap
  partition but it is impossible to have swap with encrypted /home due
  this bug. GParted on live USB session shows a red exclamation mark
  next to partition name and shows swap as a damaged partition.
