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Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless @flamusdiu releases a new stable python-pia version.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

the -dev app worked a little better - pia -a did create the .conf this time (unlike the non-dev version). I still get the error with certificate verify failure. Maybe that issue from a few weeks back with certificates and port 80? edit: I tried using the downloaded settings found in the ovpn files from PIA, none work (connection refused, or crashing the network stack).

@cryzed/klesha: can you try https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/private-internet-access-vpn-dev/ and see if it works for you. If you have no host list in pia.conf, do a "pia -a" to generate the OpenVPN configurations.

@Kleshas: oops, sorry about that. Fixed.He's doing the revert on the AUR Git Repo (not the Github one).

@kleshas I mentioned in my previous comment how to revert the recent changes. You can also configure "PKGDEST" in /etc/makepkg.conf to store the created package for next time.

Your github page has the wrong date after 3.0: https://github.com/flamusdiu/python-pia/releases shows 2016-10-25. Been trying to work out how to revert this package - yaourt uses /tmp for the cache as I understand it, so I cannot revert after a reboot as Arch has /tmp in RAM, and I don't see any place to download an older version. @cryzed - you just said you reverted to c145... but not how. I've no idea what that file/version is or where to get it.

@cryzed: I opened an issue on the Github page for it. I'll work it out soon. You can post info there (or check the status).

Well, I don't extract the OpenVPN configurations anymore because I auto-generate them. However, I messed up some of the OpenVPN stuff and forgot to actually push out the configs. I'll have to work on this later (college first!).

It's broken again... the configuration files don't get installed into /etc/openvpn for me, causing the systemd unit for OpenVPN fail to start. Reverting to c14506f20311df3c4ad30b10aab6582c2d272d3b fixes the problem temporarily. Added to IgnorePkg again for now.

@Colibris: changed the protocol to fix that issue.
