Warning: the iproute2 package has updated from version 6.4.0 to 6.5.0, and with it the default rt_tables location has changed from /etc/iproute2/rt_tables to /usr/lib/iproute2/rt_tables. I've rolled out a fix for this change in the latest version. When updating your package, please remove the package, and then reinstall it, so that everything in the piavpn-bin.install gets re-run. You will need to re-run 'sudo systemctl enable --now piavpn.service'

The client is here:

/opt/piavpn/bin/pia-client

You need to enable and start piavpn.service. Run sudo systemctl enable --now piavpn.service

Then pia-client will complete the quick tour guide, and let you login.

I am using a fully upgraded x86_64 Arch installation with Plasma/Kwin. I ran yay -S piavpn-bin without any errors.

@OkyMata on what architecture? running archlinux latest? which DE? WM?

Did you try to run it from a terminal? Did it show any errors?

Just like jbsilva and WiLL-iAm, I can install it without any problems, but the "quick tour" doesn't launch and when clicking on the taskbar icon I keep getting stuck at the loading screen without being able to log in. Downloading the official .run and installing it that way works.

can you add the zip package as a dependency? it's required to save error logs from the dialogue

@nilsonpvh I don't think you understood the concept of AUR.

The idea is to provide package for archlinux that you can manage with pacman.

A lot of package here are repackaged or repurposed from other package format like .run

Acredito que esse aplicativo não precisa ser mas disponibilizado, pois ja tem o piaxxx.run e só executar e inicia a instalação por si próprio.

Agradeço o empenho do mantenedor!

Thank you very much for your extensive and comprehensive explanation! 'Use kernel module' is not check by default (at least, not for me), it is even greyed out. I think this will be checkable if I installed the correct dependency.

Thanks again!

Most of the time, that dependency is provided by the kernel you have installed. You can check that with pacman.

If it is not, you have to install additionnial package from aur, like wireguard-dkms, or wiregard-module-git

You need the WIREGUARD-MODULE dependency if you want to use the module in the kernel, when you checked the 'Use kernel module' in piavn settings (which is by default I think ?)

Otherwise, this is not needed if you unchecked the checkbox.

Note: you can see what package provides 'WIREGUARD-MODULE' just above, in the dependencies box.

thomasdh commented on 2022-01-10 11:56 (UTC)

Apologies if this is an obvious question, but I cannot seem to find the answer to it (maybe because I do not know the right query terms).

How does one install the optional WIREGUARD-MODULE dependency?

Thank you very much in advance!
