Bug Description

Hi!

Steps:
1. Install Ubuntu MATE 14.04.2 or 15.04.
2. Choose into the installation: Encrypt my home
3. Restart and login into the installed system
4. In the dialog (auto launched) choose "Run this action", because you need to set the password.
5. BUG: The shell script needs to close the apostrophe.

Thanks in advance!

This issue manifests because mate-terminal.wrapper doesn't support double quoted strings.

Attached is a debdiff that replaces mate-terminal.wrapper with one adapted from gnome-terminal.wrapper. This patch has been submitted upstream for inclusion in the next major release of mate-terminal.
