That's their vpn not their browser
their browser has a linux d/l compresed file that once untarred the folder contains a .desktop file that launches from a double click while not strictly installable.

of course trying to get the key added so the thing will build is another matter..  but at least that's the correct program from the aur ...


Code: [Select]
 gpg --keyserver certserver.pgp.com --recv-keys EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290 

def does not work


neither does

Code: [Select]
sudo pacman-key --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290 && sudo pacman-key --lsign-key EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290



BUT this ONE does WORK

Code: [Select]
 gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org/ --recv-keys EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290

AND this ONE works

Code: [Select]
sudo pacman-key --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org/ --recv-keys EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290 && sudo pacman-key --lsign-key EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290

i'm guessing the numbers on the left are how many hours left to compile mulvad browser from scratch?

Yeah with keys.openpgp.org or keyserver.ubuntu.com you have a better chance to narrow down a key, but of course sometimes they even have to be added manually with like user repos.

I'm not sure if it's hours or minutes with that dot in the third row, depends on what it uses to compile.

so i let it compile while i slept and woke up to a failed build that failed because it timed out waiting for my password to install it.  but then reran it and installed it in a few minutes, inserting password when asked.  It's very weird and plays ads at the end of youtube videos which i thought was strange.  here's a screenshot.  you cant copy and paste a web address due to the funky characters and even the right click menu has them...  A security feature or am i missing some character set?  After using it for about an hour i def prefer librewolfs user experience.
