Since last update 2.3.0-1, it continuously stops with message "mozillavpn linuxdaemon needs to be updated or restarted". Is there any known issue?

@DarkThoughts: The Ubuntu build contains the service file.

This is because they use mozillavpn_2.3.0-<distro>.debian.tar.xz and mozillavpn_2.3.0.orig.tar.gz and combine them.

@slabz that is what I did though.

@DarkThoughts you need to run the mozillavpn linuxdaemon as root. If I run it without sudo I see the same error as you, but when I run with sudo, it works.

@slabz that throws a "Background service error" message when I try to toggle the VPN connection.

n00b user here. I don't know how to fix the service but if you just want to get it working, you can run sudo mozillavpn linuxdaemon in one terminal, then mozillavpn in a second terminal and things work.

Anyone know how Mozilla handled this themselves on the official Ubuntu build? Is it broken there as well?

I added the systemd service and try to fix it but it still doesn't work, if anyone finds the fix, push it.

@DarkThoughts The old versions are still in the git history of this package, e.g. git checkout de6d5e2120df will get you 2.1.0.

Could we revert it back to the better working 2.1 until a solution / maintainer is found?
