Help with installing libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5 (Veracrypt dependency) on Debian 12
The issue is described there: https://github.com/veracrypt/VeraCrypt/issues/1046 . Apparently newer libwxgtk works on Arch. Other option is to compile it yourself or you the Veracrypt package from nightly builds.

What would happen when Veracrypto shuts down?
As others have mentioned the software you have would still function, allowing you to move it to another encrypted tool if you wished.

It can be found at: https://mhogomchungu.github.io/zuluCrypt/
