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.

Package build fine but the daemon doesn't start. Dmesg shows:

cgroup: Disabled controller 'net_cls'

Same behaviour with the bin package.

So, I can't seem to update this application and it fails with this error:

Any idea what the issue might be?

@yochananmarqos: replaced rustup with rust and it worked. Thanks!

@arkhetypos: Make sure you're using the repo rust package to build. Also see the pinned comment.

Is this just me? Sry if so

@Anteduck: That's why it's best to build in a clean chroot so user / system variables don't interfere. However, that flag is part of Rust package guidelines, so I added it.

The PKGBUILD doesn't work if you have a different target directory specified in .cargo/config. Here's a patch that explicitly specifies the target directory:

@Hubro: I updated the requirements to match Mullvad.

FYI, Node.js 10 is EOL at the end of the month.
