I like this comment :

What should have been done instead was to release 2025.5 as a "new" 2025.7 version, so that everyone would see there was a revert through normal update channels and why, and could immediately update to it. If your release process is so complicated it is difficult to fork off ...

Mullvad pulled 2025.6 because of "severe usability issues that flooded our support staff and pissed off users (for good reasons)."

However, version 2025.6 does work, for me at least.

It reverted to 2023.3. I don't think 2023.4 will work unless GLIBC 2.29 can be ported to 19.4. Or if there's some way to trick the mullvad app into thinking that GLIB 2.28 is equivalent to 2.29.
