@gin078: I've completely rewritten the PKGBUILD & install files. I simplified it immensely, please utilize it: mullvad-vpn

Since I apparently have more time for this package than you do, would you mind adding me as a Co-Maintainer?

With v2019.9, a new symlink needs to be added to match upstream:

    ln -s "/opt/$pkgname/resources/mullvad-problem-report" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/mullvad-problem-report"

@Daxor That worked! Thanks for the helpful tip.

@yochananmarqos I'm not sure I follow -- the PGP key has long been added to the package (https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=mullvad-vpn#n18).

@blackpoll You probably need to reset your wireguard keys or make a new one. I had this issue earlier before.

The Wireguard functionality isn't working for me. It's stuck on "Blocking Internet." OpenVPN works fine.

After the recent update, as of lastnight, the GUI has completely stopped functioning at all for me, whenver I attempt to launch the GUI I stumble uppon this error

/usr/bin/mullvad-vpn: line 5: /usr/bin/mullvad-gui: No such file or directory

i was having problems with a "failed to verify integrity or prepare mullvad-vpn package" error when trying to install via pacaur.

running: gpg2 --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys A1198702FC3E0A09A9AE5B75D5A1D4F266DE8DDF as described in https://mullvad.net/en/guides/verifying-signatures/ seemed to fix it

You don't need to provide the desktop and service file separately, they're included:

    # Systemd service
    sed -i 's/Mullvad\x20VPN/mullvad-vpn/g' "opt/Mullvad VPN/resources/mullvad-daemon.service"
    install -Dm644 "opt/Mullvad VPN/resources/mullvad-daemon.service" \
        "$pkgdir/usr/lib/systemd/system/mullvad-daemon.service"

    # Desktop Entry
    sed -i 's/Mullvad VPN/mullvad-vpn/g' \
        "usr/share/applications/${pkgname}.desktop"
    install -Dm644 "usr/share/applications/${pkgname}.desktop" \
        "$pkgdir/usr/share/applications/${pkgname}.desktop"

The Mullvad developers provide a GPG signature of the RPM package. I'd like to suggest to use this for verification. This makes it necessary to import Mullvad's GPG key once but increases security.

It could look like this:

(I adopted this from the AUR package of the Tor Browser.)
