truecrypt PIE

shelleyfrank opened this issue · 3 comments

When I try to execute truecrypt in android terminal I get the following:

error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported.

Could you compile a truecrypt binary with PIE support and add it here for download please?

I'm not maintaining cryptonite at this time, but I'd be happy to provide support if you want to build it from source.

Hallo!
Thanks for your email and the link. I got a truecrypt binary working on my
phone by extracting it from the latest cryptonite apk and combining the two
part file. It works, although I get an error message at the front of every
operation,

Error: Cannot convert from the charset 'encoding - 1'

It doesn't appear to affect any truecrypt operations though. I'm busy
moving house from Delhi to London right now, including my Indian cat! When
I'm settled in I will set up my computer and try and build it from source.
Thanks once again for offering support to build it. That's very kind of you.

Best wishes
Michael Pienaar

I have the same problem with my cellphone. The error message is "Error: Cannot convert from the charset 'encoding - 1' ". It seems that there is something wrong with the charset . I wonder where this message comes from, from truecrypt or the android system or the linux kernel?
