"Please, do not flag this package as out-of-date until there's the official release on Github page."

"Maybe the announcement is delayed, but wait for some other possible forward release, which is patching the previous one before the actual publishing."

Note from 3.19.1:

The repository's hierarchy has been updated and a slightly divergence comes with it. It was from:

/debian/pool/main

To now as:

/debian/pool/main/n/nordvpn

Any previous commits you may like to try in the future will need a manual mediation to replace old links in favor of the new ones.

Note from 3.19.0:

This version introduces new libraries being used by NordVPN. I have created symbolic links and committed a patch for it not interposing with already existing libraries (like sqlite3). Although this is not a big deal, If you, however, upgraded nordvpn-bin before the fix and noticed some library-related issue from sqlite lately, I suggest reinstalling the affected package.

Note from 3.17.4v:

The previous bug exposing DNS servers is fixed.

Note from 3.17.3v:

Caution! This version needs heed while using it and should be avoided. I strongly advice downgrading to 3.17.2 and wait for a new version or patching. Some big problems are:

  • There's DNS leak present. Your original ISP servers can be exposed, as reported already on #343 issue.

  • Unable to connect on nordvpn servers. Your journal might show the follow output: networker setting dns: setting dns with resolvectl: setting dns with resolvectl: Failed to set DNS configuration: Could not activate remote peer: activation request failed: unknown unit.: exit status 1

    After restarting resolve with systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service you may get it working again, enough for connecting normally, as reported, but not exclusively an ARM platform issue, on #342.

Also huge thanks for the community warnings in prior comments before I could've noticed all.

Note from 3.16.2v:

As the published note from the version above has mentioned on Github's page:

  • Logging in with a username and password is no longer available in the terminal.

Please, consider using a token to logging in from now on.

Note from 3.16.0v:

The 'countries.dat' may differ between versions. Be aware to remove the file before upgrading the package.

If you're seeing the message "Daemon is unreachable, is systemd running?", then one of two things is probably happening.

The nordvpn daemon might not be started
Start it using:
sudo systemctl enable --now nordvpnd

You might not have been added to the nordvpn group
Add yourself:
sudo gpasswd -a USERNAME nordvpn
And then restart in order for the group to be created:
reboot

Just putting this out there in case anyone else wants to use the old, but reliable version of nordvpn. nordvpn-bin-3.7.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Hi ! Thanks for maintaining,

Here's a quick suggestion : when installing the package, directly suggest the automatic command to be added to the nordvpn group :

sudo gpasswd -a $(whoami) nordvpn

Have a nice day

Doesn't work for me.

[Error] TELIO: telio_disconnect_from_exit_nodes: Err(NotStarted)

[Error] adding drop: adding iptables rule 'INPUT -i enp42s0 -j DROP -m comment --comment nordvpn': exit status 1: Warning: Extension comment revision 0 not supported, missing kernel module?

Is this nordvpn app dependent on specific kernel modules? if so what ones?

UPDATE: SOLVED, Ended up being my modprobed.db file missing some stuff so I booted to default kernel and ran through it again.

On Ubuntu, the meshnet command is available, but it doesn't seem to be available with the version from this package. Both versions are 3.14.1

Keep getting out-of-date flags even though the version is the latest at nordvpn repos. Tried installing from nordvpn directly, same issue.

Seems like uninstalling and rebuilding nordvpn-bin again solves the issue.

I have the same problem. App just opens and closes.

If you want to get the latest version, simply clone the git repo, update the version to the latest version (e.g. 3.14.0), and remove the SHA sum lines.

To clone: git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/nordvpn-bin.git To build: makepkg

Would it be possible to get this package updated? I am getting an out-of-date flag on login. Thank you for your hard work!
