Same as you would on MacOS :
ditch the .deb package because it’s the wrong tool for the job here.
Squashfs image with encryption
Set keyring entries and a wrapper script to manage lock/unlock. If you already know the hardware platform of all users, this can even be improved upon
I have no idea why someone would be using Debian packages to distribute something like this though, if that’s the question. Absolutely not going to work well.

You are the only one with the answer closer to what I’m looking for, everyone else is thinking in terms of user accounts, where root can override. An encrypted volume can not be unlocked by root without having the password of the said volume.
