Harmless, and it appears whenever you install a package from your Downloads folder rather than from a repository. Our packages are not served from a signed apt or dnf repository yet, so your system cannot check a repository key – compare the SHA-256 below instead, which proves the same thing for the file you have. Install with the ./ in front of the filename, or apt will go looking for a package by that name in your repositories and fail.

Installing

  1. Install the package: sudo apt install ./privaseeconnect_2.6.2_amd64.deb (or sudo dnf install ./<file>.rpm).
  2. Launch it from your applications menu and sign in with your account.
  3. Pick a location on the Servers page and press Connect. Your desktop asks for your password once per session, to start the tunnel.
  4. Optional: tick Network lock so traffic stops rather than leaking if the tunnel drops.

Checksums & signature

Optional, and worth doing if you downloaded over a network you do not control. The number below is the file’s SHA-256; if what you downloaded prints the same, it is byte-for-byte what this server published.

.deb package privaseeconnect_2.6.2_amd64.deb

Print it yourself with sha256sum <file> in a terminal.

Other versions

Kept so you can go back if a new build misbehaves. The newest is almost always the one you want – older builds do not get fixes.

Other ways to connect, without our app

Privasee VPN is plain OpenVPN and WireGuard. Any client that speaks either one connects to exactly the same network with a profile from the config generator – you just do by hand what the app does for you.

WireGuard

wg-quick up ./profile.conf, or import the config into NetworkManager. Built into every current kernel.

Get a WireGuard config →

NetworkManager

Import a .ovpn profile in Settings → Network → VPN, and it appears in your system menu like any other connection.

Step-by-step guide →

Terminal

sudo openvpn --config profile.ovpn. Works on headless boxes, containers and anything without a desktop.
