veracrypt

Edit Package veracrypt

VeraCrypt is software for establishing and maintaining an on-the-fly-encrypted volume (data storage device). On-the-fly encryption means that data is automatically encrypted right before it is saved and decrypted right after it is loaded, without any user intervention. No data stored on an encrypted volume can be read (decrypted) without using the correct password/keyfile(s) or correct encryption keys. Entire file system is encrypted (e.g., file names, folder names, contents of every file, free space, meta data, etc).
It is based on original TrueCrypt 7.1a with security enhancements and modifications.

  Linux specific:
  - Focus PIM field when selected (GH #1239).
  - Fix generic installation script on Konsole in Wayland (GH #1244).

The build fails for factory since the lto switch.

The build fails for tumbleweed. Any clues on how to solve it?

Should be fixed now. There must have been a compiler upgrade, that changed the default c++ standard from 11 to 17, which causes the build to fail.

1.25.4 (December 3rd, 2021)

All OSes:

Speed optimization of Streebog.
Update translations.

Linux:

Add UI language support using installed XML files. Language is automatically detected using "LANG" environment variable
Compatiblity with with pam_tmpdir.
Display icon in notification area on Ubuntu 18.04 and newer (contibuted by https://unit193.net/).
Add CLI switch (--size=max) and UI option to give a file container all available free space on the disk where it is created.
Return error if unknown filesystem value specified in CLI --filesystem switch instead of silently skipping filesystem creation.

Personally me, I am looking forward to enjoying "Add UI language support using installed XML files. Language is automatically detected using "LANG" environment variable", have always been waiting for this. :-)

Thank you very much for providing Veracrypt v.1.25.9.

Maybe, it's worth providing a relating veracrypt-lang file including the related translations for package veracrypt.

So far, I helped myself by copying Language.*.xml from https://launchpad.net/veracrypt/trunk/1.25.9/+download/veracrypt-1.25.9-openSUSE-15-x86_64.rpm to /usr/share/veracrypt/languages/.
