I posted it on the page of the beta version, but I believe it applies to the stable release as well:

The CLI tool had some issues on my system which are easily fixable.

When I launched the CLI tool with eddie-ui -cli, it told me "Unable to find a method to run elevated process" and I couldn't find a way to fix this per se.

When I launched it with sudo, it couldn't find my profile and shut down instantly. I believe, if you launch the CLI tool with sudo, it will try to find your profiles in the wrong directory (/usr/lib/eddie-ui/ instead of ~/.config/eddie/).

There are two solutions:

(1) You can launch the CLI tool with the AirVPN username and password as arguments, but it will be visible in the terminal history so it is not a good idea.

(2) Create a symlink so that the CLI tool can find the correct profile, then pass the name of the profile as an argument when launching the CLI tool:

sudo ln -s ~/.config/eddie/default.profile /usr/lib/eddie-ui/my_profile.profile

sudo eddie-ui -cli profile=my_profile

2.19.4 works for me on KDE - Manjaro. Thanks for the fix.

I can confirm: version 2.16.x still works fine - as @lencho mentioned, you can download it from the website (compiled) - thanks!

Luckily, for the record, you can easily get older versions from the website: https://airvpn.org/linux/

The GUI is broken on Manjaro KDE (same goes for opensuse as I heared) on 2.18x or 2.19x. It worked well with the previous version 2.16. Would it be possible to add a downgrade version (2.16.3 I guess) to AUR?

@Eddie.website with your bump to "2.19.0" you have solved the cd issue but you forgot to update the pkgver, source, sha1sums and you also did not push a new .SRCINFO. Compare https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=eddie-ui&id=5c9d91d6632d085b9a6a386a4d7edf143c3b257b with https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=eddie-ui&id=0a76d87f67223cdfbaad0051f5fd1aaf116cf79d

package fixed, sorry.

@frcr: you are right, sad choice because different package (stable, git, internal etc) have different subfolder name, anyway we fix it. @isgy: in my Arch msbuild is not available, only xbuild. @andrewchen: difficult to maintain every package-system (deb, rpm, aur etc), will be investigated, anyway you tell that we don't need to call update-desktop-database anymore? Thx

@lencho: yes I have the same issue with airvpn-bin package, which is the same, as far as I understand.

lencho commented on 2020-04-08 20:09 (UTC)

I confirm package for 2.18.9 is broken ('cd' issue mentioned below), installing from source works but I get graphical issues I did not have with 2.16 (no visible text in the UI and buttons and controls are wrong size). Has a dependency changed, for a mono package or something? Same with 2.19-git.

Package still broken, using eddie-ui-git instead, which works.
