GlobalProtect VPN Client Installer for ArchLinux

This repo contains PKGBUILD for Arch Linux for installing Palo Alto Network's GlobalProtect VPN Client app, in order to connect to HEIG-VD VPN.

This PKGBUILD requires the source Ubuntu installer package (.deb), which can be downloaded from HEIG-VD VPN.

Download the Linux version and extract its content. Then, copy the GlobalProtect_UI_focal_deb_<VERSION>.deb file to the same directory as the PKGBUILD file.

Then, run the following command to build and install the package:

$ makepkg -si

Update the sha256sums appropriately. It is also assumed that you are building in a clean chroot and have the pre-requisites installed.

One of the required dependencies is qt5-webkitAUR, however, it takes very long to build that package. You may choose to install the pre-built binary released by the current maintainer of that AUR package (FabioLolix as of 2023/09/20).
