I've added https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-proton-vpn-local-agent-bin as optional dependency, I worked on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-proton-vpn-local-agent a bit to build it from source, but I have a weird issue with it so I'm not depending this package on that by default for now.

For those who know a bit about rust packaging, the issue with building from source for me is: - If I copy the build so file using cp command it works fine - If I package it (using install in PKGBUILD) and put the file there by installing the package using pacman, It doesn't work! although the files have the same checksum.

I have no idea why is that and am open to any help on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-proton-vpn-local-agent package

@shoryuken thank you, that worked!

@ali.molaei I'm not sure of technicalities of dependencies, but if you cannot force network-manager-applet as a dependency I think you should at least pin some comment explaining that getting it might fix issues. As it stands I accidentally found the solution at other package page https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/protonvpn-cli#comment-951908, and only since it's the newest one.

when I try to connect the app crashes. Not sure what is causing it. I have tried rebuilding the app and all dependencies to no avail.

Version: 4.3.3-1

I have tried deleting all Proton configuration files in my home folder since my system is a fresh install and maybe i have restored some broken configs, but to no avail. How can i fix this?

When the app starts, the following error is shown:

Unterminated string starting at: line 1 column 2764789 (char 2764788)

@melioratio thanks for letting me know about 4.4.0, I'll update when it's on github

Whizz_Bird commented on 2024-05-31 14:40 (UTC)

If any of y'all are having problems with disabling "advanced kill switch" after uninstalling the program because you forgot to turn it off before removing the program, you can regain access to the internet by disabling the "pvpn-killswitch-perm" using nmcli (or do it graphically from the settings app if you are on KDE)

Alternatively, you can edit /home/.config/Proton/VPN/settings.json to say "killswitch": 0

I have looked through some of the comments here and have tried some of the mentioned fixes like clearing the cache, manually installing the python-proton-* dependencies, etc, but none of them seam to work.

When I try to run protonvpn-app I get this error:

So sometimes I to ge the crash on launch, but fiddling with it (starting either from KDE directly or from the terminal) will eventually start the app.

However, any time I try to connect to any server I get the following error and the connection process hangs with "something unexpected happened"
