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

@yochananmarqos:

Right, I have the version 2021.2-1 at the moment. I use Wireguard, and since the time I switched to iwd, I got rid of networkmanager completely, with all its dependencies.

@madhogs: I don't have libnm, so apparently, it's not needed for mullvad-vpn.

@yochananmarqos Just want to add I also use iwd and 2021.2-1 is able to create a wireguard interface just fine without networkmanager. I do have libnm installed however, perhaps that is all that is needed? (It also seems to work fine for me without resolvconf, but maybe I don't understand the issue below)

@quantized: I added networkmanger with 2021.2-2, you must still have 2021.2-1 installed. However, you just helped me realize all that's required is resolvconf for DNS management. 2021.2-3 is updated to reflect that.

EDIT: Do you use OpenVPN or Wireguard? It turns out networkmanager is required for created a Wireguard interface (wg-mullvad).

Hi,

Is networkmanager a new dependency? I currently have the same 2021.2 version, but it's not dependent on networkmanager. Curious, because I use iwd instead of networkmanager, and mullvad-vpn worked just fine with it...

@AverytheFurry: Done.

@Cant.Install: Read the pinned comment.

@Hubro: Can't reproduce it.

I am baffled, I have no clue why my install is failing. I have been unable to update this package for months now. I get this error every time:

I am deleting the source directory before installation:

rm -rf .cache/yay/mullvad-vpn

And I'm choosing to "cleanBuild" the package in yay when installing. I don't see anybody else in the comments with the same problem. Any ideas?

Help? This thing can't install even if I use do 'git clone' and 'makepkg -si' thing. I'm a total beginner with this OS, I really hope I don't offend anyone because I don't know what to do or what's going on, but it's been over a month since I've popped this in a virtual machine and barely anything works.

the issue was uninstalling gnome uninstalled networkmanager, probably should be a dependency.

After uninstalling gnome, I am getting "failed to set system DNS" - maybe there's a dependency not listed?

@rbarrett: I may need to add networkmanager as a dependency. See if using it resolves your issues.
