@XavierCLL Odd. I'll test again and report back.

Xavier commented on 2022-08-09 16:57 (UTC)

@lordchaos thanks fixed. @jcardoso is weird that you have that issue because qt5-tools is already on the makedepends list

jcardoso commented on 2022-08-09 16:33 (UTC)

Many thanks for this package!

Just a quick note that the package build appears to require qt5-tools as a dependency otherwise you'll get errors similar to the following:

Getting Background service error when I try to connect on the UI.

Running a systemctl status mozillavpn reveals the following error:

mozillavpn[193746]: [30.03.2022 03:57:31.082] Error: (linux - WireguardUtilsLinux) Adding interface failed: Operation not supported
mozillavpn[193746]: [30.03.2022 03:57:31.082] Error: (main - Daemon) Interface creation failed.

Solution? Pretty simple:

sudo pacman -Syyu

And then a restart.

Hi @flbzh, good question, I'm using the Ubuntu source tar package because this package is ready to build and it has some pre-process, such as preparing the translation files, and preparing some source libs, and it is good to avoid because it requires more dependencies and some of them there aren't in Arch or Aur repo. This pre-prepared package doesn't have any Ubuntu binary or compiled files just the pre-process that I mentioned before, and the scripts[1] that they use for that, use the git tagged version, so at the end you get the same results with less process, simpler, like Arch. Those pre-prepared packages are official by them that's a guarantee of their content and updates (if you are wondering if the latest version is 2.7.1, no, that version was only to fix some issues for Windows). But if you have a very good reason to change it to use the git release tag instead, I'll change it.

I am wondering if I should put my version, which compiles from the offical src and not from a debian tar online.

But before I do that, why did you decide to build from a debian tar ??? What's the advantage vs a git release tag ?

Missing extra/qt6-5compat dependency is fixed now, thanks.

thanks, I could/can not test it in a clean environment now, but I think that it is fixed.
