Note that this package provides only VPN profiles but not the vendor’s software.

The package version refers to the python-pia tool by @flamusdiu, which may lag behind the vendor’s own VPN software version.

Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless @flamusdiu releases a new stable python-pia version.

Thank you!

@qKUqm3wtY4: run "sudo pia -l" then try again.

I've been using this package for about a year now with no problems. The last time I updated and restarted (yesterday), the systemd service failed auth silently. As a result, I was running raw dog for a day. Once I discovered it, I attempted to restart the service manually and it asked for my auth username and password despite that I've had a login.conf file correctly configured for about a year. I've double checked and everything is correct. When I enter the username and password, it connects as expected. I have root disabled on this machine. This is the only unique circumstance that I can think would cause this problem, but if it is causing the problem, I don't understand why. Sudo, users and groups are configured correctly afaik.

Hotfixed in networkmanager 1.0.10-2 https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/networkmanager&id=8786b70d178f62519248565e3d4649d89b7562bf

@ni3k: thanks for the info. I have updated the package build to reflect that change. Hopefully something will be done to fix it. You can look here: https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/n/networkmanager Or try the `downgrade` package in AUR (check wiki)

thx for the heads up ni3k

You need to downgrade Networkmanager, this worked for me... https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/47535

"Is anyone else having trouble with the default gateway not being set" Yes me too, but only on one system, my second desktop and my notebook work fine?! I have removed everything from Networkmanager, private-internet-access, openvpn with configuration files and reinstalled, still same problem.

Is anyone else having trouble with the default gateway not being set as of a few weeks ago? I tried installing this on a fresh antergos VM, and after connecting to VPN, here is my route -n output: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 enp0s3 10.127.1.6 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 50 0 0 tun0 185.3.135.34 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.255 UGH 100 0 0 enp0s3 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 100 0 0 enp0s3 Here is the route -n output on my similarly configured Ubuntu 15.10 VM: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 10.110.1.5 0.0.0.0 UG 50 0 0 tun0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 enp0s3 5.153.233.42 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.255 UGH 100 0 0 enp0s3 10.110.1.1 10.110.1.5 255.255.255.255 UGH 50 0 0 tun0 10.110.1.5 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tun0 10.110.1.5 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 950 0 0 tun0 10.110.1.6 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 50 0 0 tun0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 enp0s3 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 100 0 0 enp0s3 Has a new version of OpenVPN changed the defaults? It seems like the PIA ovpn files may need to be modified to fix this, but I have no idea how to fix it. Any ideas?
