The problems connecting to openvpn are unrelated to the kernel version. They occur if one uses the updated default /etc/sudoers content.

There has been an update recently: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/sudo/-/commit/4791df5c3deb6355e6a1fe0b40a13ef27ad060b0

that changes

# Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

to

Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

Activating the secure_path setting will prevent cyberghostvpn from running the /usr/local/cyberghost/openvpn wrapper. This means the original /usr/bin/openvpn wrapper gets called with the unsupported --ncp-disable parameter again - and fails.

To make cyberghostvpn work again with openvpn

a) either comment out the Defaults secure_path=... line in /etc/sudoers again

b) or add /usr/local/cyberghost to the beginning of that line

/etc/sudoers

Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/cyberghost:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

c) or downgrade openvpn to <2.6 - that makes it support the --ncp-disable command line parameter again

@dertopher are you running the command with sudo?

I'm very happy to see that someone made the effort to bring the software to arch.

I installed the package via yay.

Afterwards I enabled systemd-resolved.service

Unfortunately I am unable to use the commands "cyberghostvpn --setup" or "cyberghostvpn" from the console. In my gui Menu no links are created.
