Veracrypt in Raspberry Pi

How to install Truecrypt alternative Veracrypt on a Raspberry Pi with Raspbian operating system.

Download and unpack install files from Veracrypt website, get version for Raspbian (Raspberry Pi ARMv7).

Open a terminal window where you unpacked the install files and run the installer, update path to reflect the actual file version:

sudo bash veracrypt-1.19-setup-gui-armv7

If you try to run Veracrypt from the GUI menu and nothing happens, try to launch from a termainal window:

/usr/bin/veracrypt

I got the following message:

/usr/bin/veracrypt: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_adv-3.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Install wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit (GTK+ runtime), (you can check package details for Debian Jessie here):

sudo apt install libwxgtk3.0-0

It will also install libwxbase3.0-0

Veracrypt should work as expected now.

After a Veracrypt file container is mounted, you may find the content under /media/

Tested 2016-12-18 in Raspbian Jessie with GUI and all current updates (linux kernel 4.4.34).

Veracrypt (and Truecrypt) seems unhappy when the encrypted file resides on a filesystem mounted with SSHFS.
