Maybe we had this discussion before and I missed it. I did a Google search and didn't find it. Anyway, here is my question...
I want to create one encrypted folder on my hard drive. I don't necessarily need heavy-duty industrial-strength encryption, but "secure" is nice. Reliability is very important - I don't want it to break so I wind up losing data. In the past I've used TrueCrypt, and I didn't have to search long to find this page: https://wiki.debian.org/TrueCrypt/Install/Wheezy For those too lazy to click the link, it says that TrueCrypt is still available but no longer under active development. There is a link to some downloadable tar archives on SourceForge. From the looks of it, there are NO dependencies, and since there is no further development there should be no danger that TrueCrypt will get Potterized. It also says on that page that there newer alternatives to TrueCrypt, ie cryptsetup/LUKS and EncFS. Both of those packages have some dependencies, which is why I hesitate. I can easily envision a future scenario where udev (and thus systemd) suddenly become mandatory, or else forget being able to access your data. So I'm wondering, am I right to just go with TrueCrypt, or am I being ridiculously paranoid? And what are we planning to do with Devuan. Again, apologies if it was already discussed. cheers, Robert
