I was never a Arch Linux user because I would always have issues with the installer and getting a working system up and running. The rolling release always intrigued me so always had high hopes to one day get into Arch Linux. Recently I ran across EndeavourOS and from the start I have been blown awa…

Hi and welcome to the forum @OttoPresser

[image] OttoPresser: OpenVPN3 Hello Otto, welcome. Have you tried, yay -S openvpn3

I believe so but will give it try again. I may have been just trying pacman.

[image] OttoPresser: I may have been just trying pacman. This package is in the AUR repository: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openvpn3 , so you should use yay instead of pacman.

So question then, when should I use yay and when should I use pacman?

So running into this issue. When I try to use openvpn3 client to VPN in I get this error. ** Aborted ** ** ERROR ** Failed to disconnect tunnel (object does not exist) Apparently there is a issue but hasn’t been addressed yet. https://forums.openvpn.net/viewtopic.php?t=36576

That worked finally. Thank you again.

Hello Otto :wave: Very glad to see your going forward with this great OS :smiley: Looking forward to read about your approach to a rolling distribution as this was your objective :penguin: General users can always learn from different experiences coming to the forum and share some software glitch…

Should I use git or yay or pacman to install packages? Newbie

Pacman installs packages from only the repos. Yay installs packages from both the repos and the AUR. You shouldn’t generally be using git to install packages. This one is a little vague because git can be used to download data from a remote repo so it has a lot of different uses. I generally use yay/paru to install and update packages. In case it wasn’t clear yay and paru are similar tools that serve the same purpose.
