NOTE: Issues regarding icu library files not being found, such as

vpn-unlimited: error while loading shared libraries: libicudata.so.73: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

are not strictly related to this package, but to boost174. Each time the icu package in the official repositories is updated to a new major version, boost174 needs to be rebuilt.

You don't need to install any version of icu other than the package available in the official repositories. To resolve the issue, either rebuild boost174 yourself or, even better, leave a comment in boost174 so I can publish a new pkgver and as such force a rebuild for all users.

Mine is stuck connecting, and I simply see "failed" repeated over and over as it connects. Any idea how to solve this one?

For me removing this file fixed the issue:

"~/.config/KeepSolid Inc./VPN Unlimited.conf"

@mmkodali Have you tried restarting the daemon, the wifi, and/or the app? It seems this has resolved the error for some. See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2134413#p2134413.

@mmkodali I got the same error yesterday. I worked around by installing ICU 73 manually.

  1. Download ICU 73.2 from https://github.com/unicode-org/icu/releases/tag/release-73-2
  2. For convenience, I downloaded the binary package for Ubuntu 22.04 and copied all the libraries into /usr/local/lib (I disregarded the other content, lest it interferes with files installed and managed by my system)
  3. I then linked all the new libraries in /usr/local/lib from /usr/lib, e.g. sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libicudata.so.73 /usr/lib/libicudata.so.73 (you need to apply this for the other libicu* files as well).
  4. I restarted the vpn-unlimited daemon by running sudo systemctl start vpn-unlimited-daemon
  5. Check if it started up correctly: sudo systemctl status vpn-unlimited-daemon
  6. Now that the daemon has started, vpn-unlimited should run fine without the mentioned error message.

I think the better approach would be to install ICU 73 from source, or to link a package containing ICU 73 in the package build. Maybe this one would work: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/icu73-bin

giving the following error at startup :

vpn-unlimited: error while loading shared libraries: libicudata.so.73: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

@carsme Yes, just adding exception handling for this case when loading the UI in incoming releases/updates to avoid any breaking while loading the application. This case happens when the network is enabled, but when disconnected and trying to load it will load successfully. This scenario should be handled.

carsme commented on 2023-12-01 13:25 (UTC)

@0xh3xa Thanks for finding a fix. Not sure if there is something that can be done in the package to remove the need for the workaround. Let me know if you have suggestions.

@helmet88

I was able to run the app by doing some steps, review my comment: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2134413#p2134413
