PSA: Upstream does not support building natively for ARM64, only cross-compiling. You can use mullvad-vpn-bin instead.

--> ALWAYS DO A CLEAN BUILD <--

This package will verify the signature of the git tag / commit. Developer keys are available here and instructions are here. See the PKGBUILD to determine which developer key you need.

Please do not create upstream issues about the AUR package, they do not support it.

Installing via makepkg worked w/o issue for me, thanks!

Yay just would not let me get past the PGP key importing step, even when I had manually added them: ==> :: (1/1) Parsing SRCINFO: mullvad-vpn

:: PGP keys need importing:
 -> EA0A77BF9E115615FC3BD8BC7653B940E494FE87, required by: mullvad-vpn

==> Import? [Y/n]

problem importing keys

@Rehls

1. What about without yay?

2. Can you post the error?

Tried following all the steps outlined below by m00-aur and the mullvad install instructions and I'm still running into signing issues. All the keys are imported/signed, yet I'm still being asked for them on install while using yay.

Newby here - I've followed the instructions linked in the pinned comment, downloaded and trusted the code signing key .asc and I'm still getting the following error when I run makepkg: https://pastebin.com/raw/8Gtr4eJM

SOLVED m00-aur's comment below fixed the issue.

If you're having issues with compilation, Go might need some flags permitted to allow the build to start.

go build runtime/cgo: invalid flag in go:cgo_ldflag: -Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro,-z,now ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

To fix, export the following flags to your environment:

$ export CGO_LDFLAGS_ALLOW=".*"

Solution found here: https://forum.golangbridge.org/t/invalid-flag-in-cgo-ldflags/10020/2

if having issues with the pgp keys, simply import the necessary keys:

gpg2 --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 8339C7D2942EB854E3F27CE5AEE9DECFD582E984

gpg2 --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys EA0A77BF9E115615FC3BD8BC7653B940E494FE87

if still having issues, trust the main code signing with:

wget https://mullvad.net/media/mullvad-code-signing.asc

gpg2 --import mullvad-code-signing.asc

gpg2 --edit-key A1198702FC3E0A09A9AE5B75D5A1D4F266DE8DDF

trust

Terminal: 1. git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/mullvad-vpn.git 2. cd mullvad-vpn 3. ls (list packages) 4. less PKGBUILD (check integrity) 5. makepkg -C (C = Clean build) * >>...<< 6. sudo pacman -U mullvad-vpn-***.tar.xz

*>> (I have to) change permissions to "chrome-sandbox" while building as non-root user<< ..you have to wait when this package is built.. > open in file manager and wait for it. Then: 5.1 sudo -s 5.2 chown root:$USER /home/ * /mullvad-vpn/src/mullvadvpn-app/gui/node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox 5.3 chmod 4755 /home/ * /mullvad-vpn/src/mullvadvpn-app/gui/node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox <<

If you want it really clean, first: sudo pacman -Rs mullvad-vpn, sudo rm -rf /var/log/mullvad-vpn/, sudo rm -rf /var/cache/mullvad-vpn/, sudo rm -rf /etc/mullvad-vpn, rm /home/***/.config/Mullvad VPN, then pacman -U

can anyone help to build here,cant do it im newbie

@andykluger Yeah, I read it right after I posted my comment. sorry for the dumb question

During update:

PGP keys need importing:

Trying with gpg:

$gpg --recv-keys 8339C7D2942EB854E3F27CE5AEE9DECFD582E984

gpg: keyserver receive failed: General error

EDIT: Nevermind, got it done with gpg2 --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 8339C7D2942EB854E3F27CE5AEE9DECFD582E984
