What intrigeri wanted to say is that since 1.2, when starting TrueCrypt, people were warned that it would be removed in 1.2.1 and pointed to that piece of documentation explaining how to open TC volume with cryptsetup. So people actively using TrueCrypt have been pointed to that doc and already know how to continue using their existing volumes in 1.2.1. I find this more elegant than hammering the blog about the end of a "feature" that that has been deprecated for years. -- sajolida _______________________________________________ Tails-dev mailing list Tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to tails-dev-unsubscr...@boum.org.
