As you see, a minor change, but enough to break the client to many users.

Please add options=(!strip) to the PKGBUILD. As it is, the hash of the pulsesecure changes from f8fb6f8232d519de3887f96542cb0ca6a292b66e6acda8f7c5380f01ae1f2a73 (as in the original rpm) to ca4598660fcc6b2eb9725fa71c2e3dbb4ba1cc92df64052a22b3cfd90aca52bf and this prevents connecting to some picky endpoint servers that do this kind of validation (e.g., my uni)

@heinoscott @billerby Thanks for the notification. I've updated the package.
@iyanmv Since 22.8r5, we use libsecret instead of libgnome-keyring.

With version 22.8R5 Ivanti fixed a problem with OpenSSL. Therefore I can not connect with this current version to our VPN server and get an certificate error message. Is there an update for this package on the way?
iyanmv commented on 2026-01-15 21:23 (UTC)
Is libgnome-keyring still needed?
chiwanpark commented on 2026-01-14 09:02 (UTC)
@chmurli They are already listed in optional dependencies list. Note that the packages are not necessary because some VPNs can be connected without pulseUI.

On my system (clean cachyos) two packages were missing, gtkmm3 and webkit2gtk.
chiwanpark commented on 2025-10-01 13:46 (UTC)
@yoburtu It seems that you didn't install webkit2gtk package which is necessary to run pulseUi.

If you want to use old pulse-secure client 9.1r9, please download the following package.

The rewritten pulse-secure client requires a service called 'pulsesecure'. Please enable and start the service before running the client.
