Upgrading to 7252.2025.0318.1-2 indeed works. Thank you very much for such a short delay!

It is searching for libxml2.so.2 which does not exist anymore if I understand correctly.

Arch updated libxml2 to 2.14 recently, which provides libxml2.so.16, not libxml2.so.2. I updated the f5vpn to require libxml2-legacy, which does provide libxml2.so.2.

Does it work for you after updating f5vpn to 7252.2025.0318.1-2?

I have a problem of dep:

$ f5vpn 
/opt/f5/vpn/f5vpn: error while loading shared libraries: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
$ yay -F libxml2.so.2
core/libxml2 2.10.3-2 [installed: 2.14.2-2]

$ yay -Ql libxml2

libxml2 /usr/lib/libxml2.so.16
libxml2 /usr/lib/libxml2.so.16.0.2

It is searching for libxml2.so.2 which does not exist anymore if I understand correctly.

@zrhoffman The new mirror is working, thank you for the fix

That's a shame, that was a faster mirror, but if it blocks some IP address ranges, it's a no-go.

@muffehazard: Switched to a different mirror, it should work for you now.

I'm getting an error from curl when downloading the source files. I'm using the yay aur helper:

I get the same error when I try to download the file manually with curl or wget:

I've tried to download the file in three different locations with three different internet providers, one of which is in a different country than I am, all get the same errors. Could the source URL be geoblocked or something?

In case someone face same issue as me. Reinstall of qt5-webkit does not helped me, I downloaded archive from this comment and copied few files sudo cp libQt5WebKit* /usr/lib/, it helped for me, f5vpn is running now. Thank you zrhoffman.

@level101 Something is wrong with your build of the qt5-webkit package. If rebuilding or redownloading a prebuild doesn't fix it, try asking on the AUR page for qt5-webkit.
