Do you know which macOS Version created the FileVault?
I have a similar situation with an external disk created on Catalina. I think it's not a problem of the encryption. It looks like the format isn't understood correctly. So the mapping which gets created is somewhat of broken. The file command breaks when you do it on the file. Result is the same with the version in DEbian buster and Git state.
My disk is a encrypted Time Machine disk. fvdeinfo shows basic info. In fact the Git version does it better because of CoreStorage related improvements I think. It mounts witht he normal disk password but the HFS+ can't be mounted in read only mode. There is simply nothing usable provided by the fvde1 mapping file.
Best Regards

Hi, I am recovering an old mac hard drive and managed to mount the drive successfully. But the files themselves are still encrypted. How do i go about decripting them?
These are the steps i did (using Ubuntu 20.04):
$ sudo fvdemount -v -p <password> -e EncryptedRoot.plist.wipekey /dev/<fvde_drive> /mnt/fuse
$ hfsfuse -o ro --force /dev/<fvde_device> /mnt/file_system
Thanks in advance for any help :D
