PIA on Fedora 28

Tested on fedora 28 with pia v81

PIA for linux is not supposed to work for fedora but you can get around its installer.

  • First step is to download the installer.
  • Extract it
  • Run it as a normal user and when it asks you for your password don't fill it
  • Open a new shell and type ls -a, you will see a .pia-install.random_number folder
  • cd into the folder and cd again to installer_linux
  • cp -r ~/.pia_manager/data/ deploy_files/ this step is necessary otherwise the installer will fail
  • nano installer.rb and modify the sudo apt-get install -y ... line by sudo dnf install -y GConf2 net-tools libappindicator libXScrnSaver
  • ./installer.sh
  • kill the first shell you opened
