I also cannot install it on Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon, which is built on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
It says in the documentation to create an issue on github to see if you can support my disro, I hope it is possible

I am also running into this issue, @jwijenbergh
Linux Mint is running on Ubuntu 22.04, which is supported. It seems like the issue is just a missing Release file.

I will follow the pip method for now, hopefully this is corrected soon.

Here's the output:

$ sudo apt update
Err:10 https://app.eduvpn.org/linux/v4/deb victoria Release
  404  Not Found [IP: ---------------------------]
Reading package lists... Done
E: The repository 'https://app.eduvpn.org/linux/v4/deb victoria Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Thanks I am looking at it. So many distributions, so many things to support 😆

Please try https://python-eduvpn-client.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#linux-mint-21-x

This worked for me in a linux mint 21.2 VM. Splitting the docs per codename/distro version should hopefully avoid confusion. Linux mint is just aliased to ubuntu 22.04 now
