2008-02-21 20:54:17 David Futcher description Truecrypt is an extremely useful tool for any security conscious Ubuntu User. It allows you to create an extremely secure "virtual drive" where you can store important documents with a much lower risk of them being read by malicious attackers. It should be included in Ubuntu because it will greatly improve security, which means a higher reputation for the distribution.

URL: http://www.truecrypt.org/ Licensing: Program released under "Truecrypt License", non OSI, and the different crypto-algorithm implementations are licensed differently. So far this is the biggest problem packaging this.

2008-10-07 15:21:28 James Westby None: statusexplanation Hi, I am closing this bug, as all the evidence seems to point to there being significant licensing concerns with Truecrypt, and until they are resolved it should not be included in Ubuntu. For instance there are the debian-legal discussions, along with this: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/distributions/2008-October/000273.html It seems at this point the only way that the package could enter Ubuntu is if Truecrypt clarify their license and remove the points of concern. Thanks, James
