Yes, that's fine -- this creates an encrypted PV which then contains
unencrypted root, swap, and home partitions. This error happens if you
don't encrypt the full disk (with cryptsetup/LUKS), but just encrypt
your home directory (with ecryptfs). The latter will create an
encrypted swap partition with a random key, otherwise you'd find part
of your /home data in your swap partition.

Martin

P. S.  Swap partitions, will you please just die. Most systems don't
need them any more, and those who do are better of with the
"swapspace" package or similar. But that's waay out of reach for
Jessie :-)
