You are getting the problem because you already have zuluCrypt installed from
packages provided by zuluCrypt upstream and you are trying to update them using
ubuntu provided packages.
What you are trying to do is like mixing water and oil, it just doesnt
work.
Solve the problem by doing one of
maintainer of zuluCrypt here and i noticed this bug report from google search.

components and wayland does not like this very much and it causes the
problem you reported.
version 5.2.0 of zuluCrypt no longer supports running GUI
Noobs should not be living on the terminal or build stuff from source code.
Installing ubuntu 17.10 now to build a package you can just install and
use. I will add a link to the package on the project main page you can
download from there. The whole thing should take less than a day.

Greetings,
two of my projects are on the list(SiriKali and zuluCrypt) and latest versions
of these projects are not affected by the problem.
The latest version of SiriKali is 1.3.0 but the problem was solved in
version 1.2.9. The latest version of zuluCrypt is 5.2.0 and it also does

Ubuntu 17.10 is not out yet and what are you doing as a noob running unreleased
software?
You can now get 17.10 binary packages from here:

first,remove ALL zuluCrypt packages you have installed and then install the
ones i provide, you are getting errors because you attempting to mix version
5.0.2 from ubuntu and 5.2.0 from me.
Make sure all those with versions 5.0.2 are not in your system before
you continue.

I still use synaptic to manage packages because of its simplicity and zulucrypt
packages you most likely have installed are those highlighted in the below

Found a problem i made while packaging and fixed it,reinstall packages from
this[1] link and then run "zuluCrypt-cli --test" command and post its

That sounds like a permission related issue on the volume.
Do you still get the same behavior on a newly created volume?
Did you open the volume in read/write mode?

output:
cat /proc
Ok,i guess this concludes our business then since zuluCrypt now works as
expected.
If inflexibility of container files starts to become an issue,check out my
project
Sirikali[1] that acts as a front end to various tools that do folder based
encryption.
Wishing you a happy usage of zuluCrypt :-
