VeraCrypt concerns

TLDR : It’s just more work and licenses can be complicated.

I found this in an old thread:

Building specific distribution packages for each Linux family (mainly rpm and deb) adds some extra work but it will a good thing for the future.

As for PPA on Launchpad, there could be a licensing issue because we are obliged to stick with the TrueCrypt license and even if it is an open source , there are those who think that it is incompatible with open source. I’m not a lawyer, but my personal opinion is that the TrueCrypt license is a valid open source license so I don’t see any problem in this side.

Then a newer one where he says he doesn’t have enough time:

The project is alive…I’m just the bottleneck!

I have published Debian 13 packages for VeraCrypt 1.26.24: VeraCrypt - Free Open source disk encryption with strong security for the Paranoid

I do my best to address all needs and feature requests but my limited time sometimes causes delays. That being said, I always appreciate receiving follow-ups on such requests.

Something more that I’ve found: In this thread they’re talking about a 3rd party repo
