The latest version of GNOME (3.30) was released with most of our code, which implements VeraCrypt support at least in GNOME Disks. The rest of our code has been submitted upstream months ago, way ahead of the end of our contract, but we’re still waiting for upstream maintainers to review it, which we can’t do anything about except pinging them regularly, which segfault has been doing.

We have backported all our code to Debian Stretch, on which Tails is currently based.

So mission accomplished: the code exists for the version of GNOME Tails currently uses + the latest one.
