got stuck if backup destination is an encryted mobile harddrive

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. I have an USB external HD. I encrypted the entire disk using luks. After
the plug-in, Ubuntu will ask me the passphrase and mount it automatically.
But, if such an HD is connected, I couldn't create new backup in flyback
v0.6. I tried to start flyback from my shell. Whenever I click
"Double-click here to create a new backup," I can see "can not open
/media/M500G" on my shell.

2. If I disconnect the HD, I can go to the interface to select backup
destination and source. But of course, without external HD, I couldn't
select the backup destination.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I wish to be able to select the destination by its path, such as
/media/backupHD. I can do this in versions before 0.5. But it seems that
since v0.5, flyback has changed and seeks to find backup destination
automatically. Is this the reason of the problem?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am using flyback v6.1_r111 on Ubuntu Linux 9.10. 

I can provide more information if needed.
