Hello!

At this moment we only support Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa) and 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla). Our development team is suggesting if you would be open to compiling yourself using these instructions for other versions of Ubuntu? https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/blob/main/README.md

Regards,

Many thanks for the advice! I will try it when I have time. Regards, Jeremy

For future visitors, seems like (on Jan 25, 2021) support for older distributions was released: https://launchpad.net/~mozillacorp/+archive/ubuntu/mozillavpn
