can't launch AirVPN "cannot open display"

Everything was working until some days ago, I can't really pinpoint the update. Launching the AirVPN software from the terminal prints this message:

I 2016.10.24 14:31:37 - AirVPN client version: 2.10.3 / x64, System: Linux, Name: Arch Linux \r (\l) / x64
. 2016.10.24 14:31:37 - Restarting with admin privileges
Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
(gksu:9462): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0

I'm running gnome 3.22 and I tried both the wayland session and the X.org session and I get the same message in both.

Hmmm... I recommend using openvpn on your system rather then what appears to be their statically linked binary.

using Openvpn directly works but dnsleak.com still finds my ISP's DNS. Must I change any file? These are the contents of resolv.conf
