+<meta name="description" content="VeraCrypt is free open-source disk encryption software for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. In case an attacker forces you to reveal the password, VeraCrypt provides plausible deniability. In contrast to file encryption, data encryption performed by VeraCrypt is real-time (on-the-fly), automatic, transparent, needs very little memory, and does not involve temporary unencrypted files."/>

+This guide describes how to set up a Linux System to build VeraCrypt from source and how to perform compilation. <br>
+The procedure for a Ubuntu 22.04 LTS system is described here as an example, the procedure for other Linux systems is analogous.
+</div>
+
+<div class="wikidoc">
+<br>
+<br>
+The following components are required for compiling VeraCrypt:
+<ol>
+ <li>GNU Make</li>
+ <li>GNU C/C++ Compiler</li>
+ <li>YASM 1.3.0</li>
+ <li>pkg-config</li>
+ <li>wxWidgets 3.x shared library and header files installed by the system or wxWidgets 3.x library source code </li>
+ <li>FUSE library and header files</li>
+ <li>PCSC-lite library and header files</li>

+ <p> Remarks: <br>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ By default, a universal executable supporting both graphical and text user interface (through the switch --text) is built. <br>
+ On Linux, a console-only executable, which requires no GUI library, can be built using the 'NOGUI' parameter. <br>
+ For that, you need to dowload wxWidgets sources, extract them to a location of your choice and then run the following commands: <br>
+ <code>
+ make NOGUI=1 WXSTATIC=1 WX_ROOT=/path/to/wxWidgetsSources wxbuild <br>
+ make NOGUI=1 WXSTATIC=1 WX_ROOT=/path/to/wxWidgetsSources
+ </code>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ If you are not using the system wxWidgets library, you will have to download and use wxWidgets sources like the remark above but this time the following commands should be run to build GUI version of VeraCrypt (NOGUI is not specified): <br>
+ <code>
+ make WXSTATIC=1 WX_ROOT=/path/to/wxWidgetsSources wxbuild <br>
+ make WXSTATIC=1 WX_ROOT=/path/to/wxWidgetsSources
+ </code>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ Steps:
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ Open a terminal
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Execute the following commands: <br>
+ <code>
+ cd ~/VeraCrypt/src <br>
+ make
+ </code>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ If successful, the VeraCrypt executable should be located in the directory 'Main'.
