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Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless @flamusdiu releases a new stable python-pia version.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

@flamusdiu Hi flamusdiu thank you for the help thus far, I managed to solve the issue with the traceback error by just uninstalling NetworkManager, OpenVPN, and Pia then reinstalling them all again one of the commenters below had the same issue and solved it the same way, but when running the command "pia -a" it can't find the login.conf file, that file only has 2 lines like you said was needed for pia to recognize the details have you ever encountered this problem and do you know of any solution and if anyone reading this maybe able to help I would appreciate it.

@Svante: haha, that's good. Seems, my laptop is crashed atm. Going to be a little bit to get it working. I have some more things to fix too.

After the latest update, my problem is solved :-) Thank you, @flamusdiu

Thank you for your passion, flamusdiu.

Finally got the latest version pushed. I'll keep working on the problems as well.

@Light2Yellow: That is NOT intended. Working on setting up docker on my window's box to work on the issue. I really, really want to put Arch on this laptop but I am in school and don't want to break the laptop (first install on new hardware could have issues).

Thank you very much for your work. Unfortunately the certificate issue is still there in 3.2-1, see your comment (commented on 2016-10-04 17:54). On a side note, I can connect if I change the config files to 2048 keychains, but for some reason my browsers will not work. ping -c3 www.google.com yields a great result. in Chrome/Firefox --> www.google.com yields a timeout (keeps hanging at 'establishing secure connection'). You guys know what this may be?

Hi. I don't know if it's a problem with the package, but I can't connect. I have installed Private Internet Access on my Computer. I have followed the installation guide from Arch. I can see all the VPN networks, but when I try to connect to any of them, I get an error that says something like "the service that delivered the VPN connection is stopped". I have never seen this error before. I have another computer, that doesn't get this error. What could be wrong?

@flamusdiu it didn't solve the issue, unfortunately. Created a conf, ran sudo pia -a, both login.conf and pia.conf are owned by root, nm was restarted. Still when I edit one of the vpn connections through nm gui it shows me my login, no password and no certificate. However, if I manually enter the password (in the gui) and choose 2048 crt it connects normally. Is this intended?
