Updates:

The new official Linux CLI client is now available. Source code and AUR protonvpn-cli. Please upgrade to this client if possible.

As for this community version, I think it should be maintained here for a while longer as there have still been git changes over the last week. The latest version is 2.2.11. This package is now marked as conflicting with the official protonvpn-cli package.

Note: if upstream changes and the checksum needs to be updated, please try clean building to prevent caches from interfering.

network-manager-applet is actually required for all this to really work, see https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/proton-vpn-gtk-app#comment-951906

Can't connect, I get this error:

To get protonvpn running I still need to apply the solution as proposed by Manix (paru -S --rebuild python-protonvpn-nm-lib python-proton-client protonvpn-cli)

Thank you wonderlust
I ran in manjaro:

pamac build python-protonvpn-nm-lib python-proton-client protonvpn-cli

and it totally worked!!!

wunderlust commented on 2023-06-08 05:22 (UTC)

I encountered the same problem (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'proton') as Manix and just want to confirm that their solution (paru -S --rebuild python-protonvpn-nm-lib python-proton-client protonvpn-cli) worked for me.

To fix the proton.constants ModuleNotFoundError I tried cleanbuilding the packages and dependencies and I deleted .local/lib/pythonXX and .cache/yay but nothing worked. It was only after I manually deleted /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/__pycache__ and /usr/lib/python3.11/__pycache__ that the problem was fixed.

after the python update and a rebuild i have this error :

 ❯ protonvpn-cli c 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/protonvpn-cli", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('protonvpn-cli==3.13.0', 'console_scripts', 'protonvpn-cli')())
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/protonvpn_cli/main.py", line 20, in main

  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/protonvpn_cli/cli.py", line 4, in <module>
    from proton.constants import VERSION as proton_version
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'proton'

any ideas ?

EDIT : problem solved with : paru -S --rebuild python-protonvpn-nm-lib python-proton-client protonvpn-cli

According to Proton support and personal experience there's a dependency on network-manager-applet. protonvpn-cli won't connect unless nm-applet is running.
