i was having problems with a "failed to verify integrity or prepare mullvad-vpn package" error when trying to install via pacaur.
running: gpg2 --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys A1198702FC3E0A09A9AE5B75D5A1D4F266DE8DDF as described in https://mullvad.net/en/guides/verifying-signatures/ seemed to fix it
Would you consider updating to beta version of the package? Currently at 2019.7-beta1
You don't need to provide the desktop and service file separately, they're included:
# Systemd service
sed -i 's/Mullvad\x20VPN/mullvad-vpn/g' "opt/Mullvad VPN/resources/mullvad-daemon.service"
install -Dm644 "opt/Mullvad VPN/resources/mullvad-daemon.service" \
"$pkgdir/usr/lib/systemd/system/mullvad-daemon.service"
# Desktop Entry
sed -i 's/Mullvad VPN/mullvad-vpn/g' \
"usr/share/applications/${pkgname}.desktop"
install -Dm644 "usr/share/applications/${pkgname}.desktop" \
"$pkgdir/usr/share/applications/${pkgname}.desktop"
The Mullvad developers provide a GPG signature of the RPM package. I'd like to suggest to use this for verification. This makes it necessary to import Mullvad's GPG key once but increases security.
It could look like this:

(I adopted this from the AUR package of the Tor Browser.)

EDIT: Nevermind, update is working again!
I use KDE, and when I am running this mullvad-vpn app, it causes KDE to freak out. Among other things, suspend no longer works, and when I try to use the start menu the GUI freezes, although I can still interact with already-open windows.
Anybody else experience issues like this? I've tried looking in the usual log locations but nothing looks odd.
The app itself works great- it just hoses the rest of my system. :(
I created a patch for updating to the newer 2019.3 version of mullvad-vpn: https://gist.github.com/ruabmbua/baa640da268e02c3429c2f891f658950
The mullvad-vpn GUI is currently broken for me (probably due to version mismatch), use the mullvad command for now
More serious issue; with the old app sharing the tunneled connection over wifi was easy. Now because of the mullvad app clients can't connect anymore. I have 'Local network sharing' enabled of course. The ip addresses simply aren't released to clients. As soon as I close the app and the daemon everything works fine.. I tried this with NetworkManager as well as create_ap. Anyone know a solution?
Works great! Thanks for putting this together.

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

--> 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.
