[Borgbackup] impossible to mount encrypted repository (via fuse)

David, you can only get back from a borg backup archive what was put
into it.

It looks like you archived encrypted files (encrypted directory names,
file names and file content).

So if that is all you have and you did not also archive the "unencrypted
view" onto these files (as offered after "opening" the ecryptfs with
your encryption key / password), your only way to proceed is to extract
that all and then open it with ecryptfs to get the decrypted view onto it.
