Thanks @ancoron, rules added

The newest version (2.33.0) re-introduced polkit integration:

https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/pull/10965

And while the current package here installs the policy file it forgot to install the rules file.

This results into password prompts (sudo) for almost every action on the VPN (even status update in a terminal).

After installing the file linux/org.mozilla.vpn.rules-others from upstream Git into /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/org.mozilla.vpn.rules, the password prompts are gone.

Also make sure the user is in group "wheel" or else the rules won't apply.

@tuximail, interesting, good to know, and thanks for sharing

For whom it may concern: I found the issue to be out of sync kernels. Read here for details: https://tuximail.github.io/mozillavpn.html

@tuximail it is working for me perfectly, try to rebuild it (or trying the binary version from chaotic-aur repo) it could be an issue of your libs or compilation

@Xavier unfortunately the current version doesn't work for me - regardless if I try to start through cli or GUI.

$ mozillavpn activate                 
[1]    621142 segmentation fault (core dumped)  mozillavpn activate

Not sure if this is a bug with this package or the upstream project - I am happy to report it there, if you feel it is more accurate there.

Thank you for the quick responses. I can confirm the current version is building again 👍

I fixed adjusted the cmakelists.txt, now is possible to build it with Qt 6.10 however the UI have some glitches (it is possibly active/deactive through icontray or use the cli) I'm going to report the problem

Xavier commented on 2025-10-11 17:12 (UTC)

@tuximail it seems like qt6-declarative is missing, but it is weird because it is already in the deps
