Arch Linux User Repository

This is a dev release branch. Stable version is https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/private-internet-access-vpn/

Take your time dude! I appreciate everything you've done to make this package anyways, so if there's a little thing broken I'm more than happy to fix it myself.

(also sorry, I would have raised a PR against the repo, but I kinda thought it was abandoned or you were too busy. Hope my previous comment didn't come off as rude!)

Give me a day and I'll get this fixed. Sorry, it's been a crazy year.

oh, and I had to change the checksums on some of the files.

Seems even more broken than usual. So I got it working by changing the egrep line in the PKGBUILD to:

    host=$(grep -Po "(?<=remote )[-a-zA-Z.]+" "$file")

I also had to modify python-pia before a could call sudo pia -a. I had to change line 85 in pia/applications/hooks.py to :

        return [h.fqdn for h in properties.get_default_hosts_list() if h.name == re.sub('_', ' ', config_id)][0]

(note the swapped '_' and ' ' there). That seems to have done the trick, but man was this a pain. Either way, vpn working again.

Thanks to florosus with that I've successfully installed the package, but In my case, sha256sums were different from what he sent. Here're my results: 74ac6ec76cd107e91e8be89d95e186e9c88b842ba80a638d29f23cbfb3d68f0b

Guys, I think it's pretty obvious what's wrong. PIA have added vpn configs to openvpn.zip and openvpn-strong.zip, so their sha256sums have changed. Download those two files and run sha256sum on them, the replace the first two lines of the sha256sums section with the new sums you just calculated. Easy! I've even done it for you:

I'll tell Jesse about this since he's forgotten about this package.

Neither private-internet-access-vpn-dev nor private-internet-access-vpn installs dues to invalid checksums, please fix asap

Can't install this package.

Came to this package from the stable version because of this same issue:

Marking out of date, just like the stable one.
