@megahertz Can you elaborate on how to manually run commands from astrill.install post_install function? Thanks for paying attention to my problem.

@jenetism Still works fine for me. Sometimes running commands manually from astrill.install post_install function solves such an issue

"Your Astrill installation is broken, etc.", new update shows this problem.

Things I had to do to get it to work (Feb 2023):

  • Remove /etc/timezone (otherwise it would just crash with "Runtime error 203")

    Astrill expects a file or no file at all, but if /etc/timezone is a folder it would crash

  • Disable systemd-resolvd.service (otherwise it would not work outside of browsers)

Anyone else getting "Runtime error 203" when launching Astrill lately? Been happening to me since around Nov. 20, not sure why...

@Zenderking Thank you so much! It's working on my Steam Deck now!

For those who have been having connection issues (Arch Linux, Fedora 36+, Ubuntu 22.04+, Steam Deck), try disabling systemd-resolved.service:

sudo systemctl disable --now systemd-resolved.service

sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager

because the Astrill client hasn't been updated in quite a while now and doesn't support it.

Ahh I see! I'm a fairly new user so I didn't know how it works. Just keeping the comment for any new users coming here so that they have all the clues they need to work with. Astrill support was not of any use unfortunately. So an up to date comment might prevent a lot of hassle!

But thank you very much for maintaining it! Very much appreciated!

@xyder I don't know whether it's a good idea to include gtk2 as a dependency since it's too large, but maybe you're right and there's no another option to make it work. I'll think about it on the next release. As for base-devel, it's required for building any AUR package, so it doesn't make sense to include that.

Hey ! I am a new user living in China. I tried to install Astrill and had to jump through some hoops to make it work. This is for the new users specially if you are living in China.

After a clean install of Manjaro i had to install base-devel for the binary stripping and for another error.

The second thing I had to install was the package gtk2.

Then I tried downloading the usual way. Thing is, in China the download may fail several times. After tinkering with no avail, I just tried downloading repeatedly and it worked after a few times.

Without gtk2 the program doesn't launch. So that fixed the error.

Then the program worked fine.

Maybe the maintainers can include gtk2 and base-devel as dependencies? IDK I'm not sure how that works. But something I wanted to mention in the comments for future users.

Hope this helps! Cheers!
