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.

The latest version needs python added as a makedepend:

Alright, so I asked around /rust and apparently, there is a library called curl that has a HTTP2 request bug in its 7.69.0 version.

AUR already has the bug-fixed verison, but people on Manjaro-stable side are going to have to wait for a moment.

@MrHotAir: I have been seeing the "spurious network error" from crates.io lately with quite a few packages that use Cargo to build. I'm not sure if it's an issue on their end or what.

Right, so I just recently distro hopped a bit and returned back to Manjaro (XFCE stable). As pamac tried to build Mullvad, I get this weird error message:

I tried to check out any of the packages and tried a few tricks to make sure that the problem wasn't in my end (possible firewall issue), but I just can't seem to figure out why I couldn't download those specific files.

Anyway, still thanks for yochananmarqos for your work. I have enjoyed Mullvad on my Linux PC's a lot thanks to your effort in keeping the package on and updated.

@tylerwolf35: The issue is fixed now, it was a typo.

@yochananmarqos I am going to bed as well, just decided to use Wireguard and it worked perfectly well.

@tylerwolf35: None of this touches your home directory, that's completely wrong. No wonder it can't find the daemon. You're on your own to figure it out for now, I'm going to bed.

@yochananmarqos I simply changed the icon directory from /usr/share/icons/hicolor/${icon_size}x${icon_size}/apps to /home/$USER/mullvad-vpn/src/mullvadvpn-app/dist/usr/share/icons/hicolor/${icon_size}x{icon_size}. There was no error but now the daemon is not found.

@tylerwolf35: What did you edit? What is the exact error? You need to provide this information without me having to ask you.

@yochananmarqos Didn't work but I was able to edit the icon directory in the PKGBUILD and it built and installed without errors. Now when I try to start the daemon it is not found. A few weeks ago I installed this package without any issues, I am unsure why it is not working for me now.
