VeraCrypt concerns

Libre_Software_Enjoyer:

I don’t know what you mean with license issues?

TrueCrypt 3.0 is considered a non-free license by the FSF. Some parts of VeraCrypt are still under the TrueCrypt license and therefore can’t be included in many repositories which only allow free software. This is the reason Tails comes with a VeraCrypt Unlocker application rather than VeraCrypt itself.

And you also don’t need to package for every platform, just make a Flatpak, then you package ones and it runs everywhere

Since VeraCrypt has already been distributing distro-specific packages for so long (Flatpak wasn’t an option), it’d be problematic to discontinue those package formats. Flatpak may also have some quirks which might make packaging a VeraCrypt Flatpak more labor intensive or maybe even impossible. For example, IIRC Mullvad can’t distribute their VPN as a Flatpak due to limitations with Flatpak. All this to say Flatpak may not resolve the labor shortage issue with VeraCrypt but it would be good to have if they can eventually spare the time to make one.
