New issue by ircurry on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/40145

Description:
### Is this a new report?

Yes

### System Info

Void 5.19.16_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rFF

### Package(s) Affected

zulucrypt-6.0.0_2

### Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

addressed in the third sentence [here](https://github.com/mhogomchungu/zuluCrypt/wiki/zuluMount-cli-howto).

### Expected behaviour

I expected the the command `zuluMount-cli -t vera -m -d /home/$USER/Documents/volume` to ask for my password for the VeraCrypt encrypted volume and then mount the volume to `/run/media/private/$USER/volume`, like the [documentation](https://manpages.org/zulucrypt-cli) says. Note that both zuluCrypt-cli and zuluMount-cli mount to the same place.

### Actual behaviour

After running `zuluMount-cli -t vera -m -d /home/$USER/Documents/volume`, the program fails, giving the error `setgroups() failed:`. This is remedied by using `sudo`. However, the volume is mounted at `/run/media/private/root/volume`, requiring the user to login as root in order to access it. This is both a hassle and a security issue. However, after cloning the [repo](https://github.com/mhogomchungu/zuluCrypt) and [installing from source](https://github.com/mhogomchungu/zuluCrypt/blob/master/BUILD_INSTRUCTIONS), the program works as expected and I don't know why.

### Steps to reproduce

1. `sudo xbps-install -S zulucrypt`
2. run `zuluMount-cli -t vera -m -d /path/to/volume` to get the first error.
3. run `sudo zuluMount-cli -t vera -m -d /path/to/volume`.
It is important to note that the current release for xbps is 6.0.0_2 and the current version of zuluCrypt is 6.2.0.
