I've added https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-proton-vpn-local-agent-bin as optional dependency, I worked on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-proton-vpn-local-agent a bit to build it from source, but I have a weird issue with it so I'm not depending this package on that by default for now.

For those who know a bit about rust packaging, the issue with building from source for me is: - If I copy the build so file using cp command it works fine - If I package it (using install in PKGBUILD) and put the file there by installing the package using pacman, It doesn't work! although the files have the same checksum.

I have no idea why is that and am open to any help on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-proton-vpn-local-agent package

@shoryuken thank you, that worked!

@ali.molaei I'm not sure of technicalities of dependencies, but if you cannot force network-manager-applet as a dependency I think you should at least pin some comment explaining that getting it might fix issues. As it stands I accidentally found the solution at other package page https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/protonvpn-cli#comment-951908, and only since it's the newest one.

Thanks it works, but I noticed that this new client does not have permanent kill switch. The kill switch stops working when you disconnect VPN. In older version, the kill switch could be made permanent.

@cybercountry that did it, thanks!

@blenderfox Check if you have network-manager-applet installed

Does anyone else also get authentication denied when trying to connect to any PVPN server?

@ali.molaei confirmed, works for me now. Thanks!

I believe the decision to abandon the use of tags in favor of commit hashes in the package was a good move. The transition to commit hashes appears to be a solid and responsible choice, offering a more stable and secure approach to tracking package versions

I will be updating to the new version now, but this package continues to work very well for me

ali.molaei commented on 2023-11-16 08:04 (UTC)

I switched to using "commit hashes" instead of "tags" as the tags are being removed randomly, Also, I don't want this package to be a "-git" package using the latest commit always and want it to be a stable release, so I need to update the hashes when an update occurs.

This should work fine now

Jesus fucking christ what is with all those python-proton packages? This is even worse than the old protonvpn. At least the old one can actually build and install itself while this one shits itself trying to do all those packages.

Anyone know why I keep encountering this error when trying to install this program?

@metricspace64 1. Do you have a keyring provider installed and is it being activated when you startup? 2. I think killswitch means that there should be no internet if ProtonVPN is not connected, if it's connected, your network should work as it is now
