This package will verify the signature of the source package. The Mullvad code signing key is available here and instructions are here.

After the most recent update to this app, it no longer displays the map in the background on the main screen. Are other people experiencing this? The app otherwise seems to function as expected.

I emailed Mullvad to point out the problem and their very unhelpful, and borderline absurd, suggestion was that since Arch is not supported by Mullvad, I should change my distro. This suggestion was made before even establishing if the distro is the problem or not.

Anyway, I'm wondering if there is some missing dependency or something after the update that resulted in this problem. Thanks for any feedback.

EDIT: There was a misunderstanding here and I've removed my replies.

@yochananmarqos unbelievable, you insulted me, telling me I'm lost and assume projection. It is clear from your other comments that you have a short fuse so I will end this off-topic trail by saying thanks for mullvad-vpn package, the work and have a good day.

@yochananmarqos first of all calm down, there's no need to insult people over the internet... Secondly, it is obvious that a mistake has taken place. My comment was posted under the binary version of the mullvad package. With the context of compilation, obviously the non-binary version was meant. A mistake should not rage you. So let's reiterate the questions based on the "mullvad-vpn" package, not the "mullvad-vpn-bin" package.

@reverseengineer: Are you lost? This package doesn't build from source.

@yochananmarqos I have a few questions. Why is NPM a necessity? Is the compilation done with multiple cores ? It seems rather slow. The memory consumption concern of another comment seems somewhat justified. I have lots of RAM but even I noticed that the consumption, according to bpytop, reached over 8GB. That seems quite excessive for a VPN GUI application, doesn't it?

Feature request: refactor logic for upgrade/install:

  • it is fine to enable systemd units on first install
  • on upgrades, if the systemd units are disabled, they should stay disabled instead of re-enabled

Are you accepting patches? I can submit one.
