If you have trouble with building it, please run yay -Scc or yay -Sc.

FYI. I replaced gdbuspp-git with gdbuspp in the PKGBUILD dependency, and it seems that the build fails because the locally cached PKGBUILD is not updated.

@ccoffey I have to rebuild this package very often too. Not sure if at every kernel update. I'd guess every time glibc is updated, I'm not sure.

Am I doing something wrong, or is it expected to have to rebuild and reinstall this package each time after kernel update?

FYI: manually compiling the code with latest / testing gcc (gcc-15) also works, following the instructions from upstream: https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn3

@orenvadi, Bro, I've been blowing my brain for four days. Thanks!

@orenvadi, thanks it works. perhaps until the fix it will be nice to correct the PKGBUILD to use gcc14 for the building

i could not install this package, nothing helped me, even deleting and reinstalling package,

i solved it with older gcc

sudo pacman -S gcc14
export CXX=/usr/bin/g++-14

then it finally worked

yay -S openvpn3

To anyone wondering how to get openvpn3 to work again, I simply uninstalled and reinstalled it:

yay -R openvpn3

yay -S openvpn3

This is the error it solved:

openvpn3/session-start: ** ERROR ** Could not start new VPN session: New tunnel did not respon

I have OpenVPN config that worked for a long time already and it broke. One problem was due to change of internet provided and I solved it. But I got another one. Previously I was able to activate a tunnel as unprivileged user, but now I can do it only as root. I.e. everything works if openvpn is started as root user, but if I start it as a normal user I have: ERROR: Cannot ioctl TUNSETIFF tun: Operation not permitted (errno=1) As I haven't changed anything by myself (only regular system updates) so I would like to seek an advice about what might have changed and how to fix it.

@ehlegeth This happens to me from time to time. I think that it might have to do with updating some core dependencies like glibc or something like that. Everytime this happens, I have to rebuild the package and reinstall it, and it normally works. But since I use it for work and can't afford to be stuck outside the vpn, I test the update in a separate environment before updating my work machine.
