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Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless @flamusdiu releases a new stable python-pia version.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

@Svante: this package is DE independent. You just need to use either Network Manager or Connman and whatever GUI you want.

Any special things to do on KDE?

And again a update, the checksum for openvpn.zip is now: 49ab3063f5b3b457b457565561c0ddc842dfbaeaf7a49fe5906b89730baafe3d

I've flagged this out of date because the sha256 checksum for openvpn.zip has changed to: ead2160aa4a25a2404f2175bf682267026de39f54e69170d276d1f57216ce99e

Is there any way to enable DNS protection? I'm getting all sorts of leaks as it is. Edit: I fixed it by changing foreign_option_1 and _2 in update-resolve-conf.sh

@splurben: Do you have git installed properly? I have git version 2.6.2. I did the following commands: ~> git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/private-internet-access-vpn.git ~> cd private-internet-access-vpn -> makepkg -sri Works for me.

I have many other AUR packages installed without a problem but on private-internet-access-vpn.tar.gz 2.4.6-4 I get the following error: $ makepkg -sri ==> ERROR: Cannot find the git package needed to handle git sources. Am I missing a GIT implementation possibly?

I completely removed it and all the config files, removed openvpn, removed networkmanager-openvpn and reinstalled starting with pia and it worked. There must have been some conflict with those packages being installed already.

Oops ... I wonder if I did my new changes on the wrong branch. I'll probably fix it tomorrow. I have school work to finish tonight. Sorry about that!
