[SOLVED] Proton-VPN app not running after recent update

After recent update I'm having an issue with ruunning Proton-VPN. Here's what is happening

Maybe there is a new turret, or some walls have moved. Or perhaps someone has temporarily removed the floor under your bed."

Re: [SOLVED] Proton-VPN app not running after recent update

Never mind, I've found the solution - the problem was with the python-proton-core package. Probably again some issues while updating, so this is what helped

$ yay -S --dbonly python-proton-core

$ yay -S python-proton-core
