Arch Linux User Repository

PSA: Upstream does not support building natively for ARM64, only cross-compiling. You can use mullvad-vpn-bin instead.

--> ALWAYS DO A CLEAN BUILD <--

This package will verify the signature of the git tag / commit. Developer keys are available here and instructions are here. See the PKGBUILD to determine which developer key you need.

Please do not create upstream issues about the AUR package, they do not support it.

The latest version is failing for me. I'm not sure what my issue is (seems to be NPM?)can anyone help? https://gist.github.com/IanQS/c300287b65a309c1b8ade81bfe02a7e2

I seem to run into issues whenever I try to upgrade Mullvad from an existing install. Whenever I do an install on a new machine everything works as expected

@DarkThoughts: Manually remove the old gopath folder:

sudo rm -rf /var/tmp/pamac-build-*****/mullvad-vpn/src/gopath/

Latest version fails to build for me (Manjaro). https://controlc.com/73ccfd5a

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this package (or any of its variants) should be enabling the systemd service automatically. It is common practice under Arch to let that up to the user, and perhaps display a message during the installation indicating that it should be enabled manually.

Enabling it automatically is inconsistent with the behaviour of other Arch packages - for instance, I actually don't want it to be started after I install it, because I chose to install it, no to run it.

Thanks for maintaining this package!

A unit mullvad-daemon.service isn't started automatically after system boot:

[doskanoness@archlinux ~]$ sudo systemctl status mullvad-daemon.service                                                                                                                      
○ mullvad-daemon.service - Mullvad VPN daemon                                                                                                                                                
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/mullvad-daemon.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)                                                                                           
     Active: inactive (dead)

I looked through the PKGBUILD and importing these keys worked for me. I didn't have to change the trust on either of them.

$ gpg --recv-key 'EA0A77BF9E115615FC3BD8BC7653B940E494FE87'
$ gpg --recv-key '8339C7D2942EB854E3F27CE5AEE9DECFD582E984'

Package still fails to build with a clean build.

Deleting ~/.cache/yay/mullvad-vpn directory and then doing a clean build is successful.

I'm getting this message when building

Package still fails to build for me. I get the following error:

Thanks, I did that. But there's a new error. I tried uninstalling and re-installing, but got the same error.

Tried installing mullvad-vpn-bin and that did work.
