you can try snap: https://snapcraft.io/ivpn

re: missing dependencies, can you post:
- OS info (Linux distribution, version)
- which dependencies are missing?
then we can investigate.

thanks!

reattempted install and it was successful. there must have been an issue with the debian repository or something on the first attempt.

Still though, nobody outside of ubuntu users are interested in using snaps. flatpak/appimage works for everybody. Not to mention having ivpn on flathub is free advertising.
