I had recently installed Ubuntu 18.04.01 LTS (OS Type: 64 bit) everything works fine except Veracrypt. which takes forever to mount a drive. Once I waited to see exactly how much time it takes to mount but after serveral hours i still got the Please wait. I had also tried starting veracrypt as sudo and then mounting a partition but it the same. Anyway strange thing happened. On windows I installed veracrypt latest version (VeraCrypt Setup 1.23-Hotfix-2.exe) and it mounted the drive in seconds (actually it first asked that the drive is unclean and it will clean it, after that it mounted the drive. I now know in Ubuntu I can mount the volume through console using veracrypt -t --mount /mnt/backup/temp/dll /media/veracrypt1
mount veracrypt
