Since this thread, Riseup has added an apt repository (so Snap is no
longer the only recommended method), and this repository appears to
contain source packages as well as binary packages.[1]

They don't provide it through their repos.

It is possible to have an apt repository which only includes binary
packages, not source packages.  Debian and Ubuntu do include both
though.

Those of us who want to us it could write to Riseup and ask for the source  
code. Technically, it should be available through Ubuntu or Debian, or how  
else would they provide it through their repos? If I'm not mistaken, they  
require source code, too.

You must user their own app as I read but it's just a fork of Bitmask, then,  
you could configure it in other client but I don't think that follows OpenVPN  
definition.

Hm. Do they provide OpenVPN configurations for their new service? In my
experience most VPN services do, but I don't see it anywhere.

That's annoying. You could instead compile it yourself, but I can't find
the source code anywhere. You don't need their client to use their
servers, though, if you use OpenVPN[1] instead.

2019-08-16 Thread marco

Hello,
I know that snapd is not supported because is it way to easy to install non  
free software, but is it possible to use riseup vpn with trisquel,

https://riseup.net/en/vpn/linux
or should I look for another vpn?

Any suggestions for another vpn in case?

I do use Torbrowser pretty much always, but sometimes I need to use abrowser.

all the best to anyone that read this post :)
