Thank you for the report.
I have uploaded .deb package for Ubuntu 24.04 with the correct dependencies.
You can download them from Sourceforge (https://sourceforge.net/projects/veracrypt/files/VeraCrypt%201.26.7/Linux/) and using links in main download page (https://veracrypt.fr/en/Downloads.html)

By the way, Ubuntu 24.04 packages now depends directly on libgtk3 because wxWidgets that ships with Ubuntu 24.04 that causes VeraCrypt GUI to crash in text mode (veracrypt --text). This bug was fixed in wxWidgets 3.2.5. So the binaries for Ubuntu 24.04 are linked statically with wxWidgets to workaround this issue.

Feel free to reopen if you encounter further issues.
