You can install Veracrypt on the Pinebook Pro, but you have to (at this time) compile it from source. This is how to do it, You need to install the following packages:-

sudo pacman -Syu gcc binutils fakeroot yasm wxgtk3 patch asp make dracut

Create a new folder and cd into it.

asp checkout veracrypt

cd into the folder with the PKGBUILD (./veracrypt/trunk)

makepkg --ignorearch --skippgpcheck

If you are in luck you will find this file appearing in the trunk folder

veracrypt-1.24.update4-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz

you can install it with this command

sudo pamac install veracrypt-1.24.update4-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz
