Tried this guide https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Private_Internet_Access_VPN, but I can't see any PIA VPN's in the networkmanager?
I'm using KDE.

@cryzed: Ooo ... I didn't know that was a package here. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll get it changed soon.

This should depend on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openvpn-update-resolv-conf or https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openvpn-update-resolv-conf-git instead of bundling it. Note that the script name is slightly different in the openvpn-update-resolv-conf package: the *.sh extension is missing.

Please also update pkgrel in SRCINFO to match PKGBUILD. Thanks.

I'll update the checksums. PIA updated the zip again.

Please add git as a dependency.

Oops, "pia -a" to auto-configure. This is why I should have more coffee.

@flamusdiu That command only lists all of the available PIA configurations - using it didn't change anything.
My VPN disconnected randomly today and it got a warning message in one of my terminals: "Please enter password with the systemd-tty-ask-password-agent tool!"
I had to restart the service and then enter the username and password again. This started happening after I updated this package.
-----------------------
Is the wiki still correct? Should the username and password be located at: /etc/private-internet-access/login.conf ?

Note that this package provides only VPN profiles but not the vendor’s software.
The package version refers to the
python-piatool by @flamusdiu, which may lag behind the vendor’s own VPN software version.Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless @flamusdiu releases a new stable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-piaversion.Thank you!
