Downloaded mozillavpn_2.0.1-focal2_amd64.deb. When I tried to install it via the Ubuntu Software Install GUI, I got "Unable to install mozillavpn: The following packages have unmet dependencies:". Nothing listed after that.

When I run "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillacorp/mozillavpn" I get these error messages: E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillacorp/mozillavpn/ubuntu groovy Release' does not have a Release file. N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.

Same error messages when I run "sudo apt-get update". I browsed the filesystem for the VPN but it doesn't appear that it got installed

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply. I should have mentioned that I'm on Ubuntu 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla). I got another reply prior to yours, and this worked for me:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillacorp/mozillavpn

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install mozillavpn

Thanks!

I think the problem is you're trying to install the PPA on the wrong release.

The repository listing you posted has "groovy" in the link. That stands for "Groovy Gorilla".

The repositories on the download page:

https://launchpad.net/~mozillacorp/+archive/ubuntu/mozillavpn

Are for "focal", which is "Focal Fossa"

The actual PPA is:

"deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillacorp/mozillavpn/ubuntu focal main"

I just verified this by updating Ubuntu from 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) to 20.04 (Focal Fossa) and was then able to add the PPA and install/run mozillavpn

Hope this helps.
