Failure on build

[dubcl]

Hi I try to install protonvpn on Archlinux 5.18.2-arch1-1 from aur (yay -S protonvpn), but when the installer try to build proton-python-client-0.7.1 I get this error:

==> Starting build()...
Traceback (most recent call last):

    from proton.constants import VERSION

Any idea how to fix?, I try to search the issue but without luck.

Cheers.

Hi @dubcl !! Just came to notice that proton updated their installation, since last time i used their CLi.

• I tried as well installing using (yay) and got similar issue! . However i went with this community approach as described here.

=> This approach is the method i've been using, before they updated the process! Don't know if the above method is still recommended !?
