How to install Astrill VPN in Bazzite
I need to install astrill VPN. I tried distrobox, but the VPN needs real root privileges so that didn't work. I tried rpm-ostree, but at first I got SELINUX key errors, then I fixed that. Selinux was disabled for some reason but I get it enabled. Now the install fails at checkout. It days the local directory doesn't exist. I think this is because local is a symlink.
Now after a reboot the installation did create files in the var/local folder, so something worked. It starts and I can login, it even says it is connecting, but then all I get in Firefox are DNS errors and can't access websites as it fails the HSTS check. This doesn't happen on any other systems so I'm at a loss.
I need this specific VPN as it is the only one that works reliably in China.
At this point I'm trying to open my bazzite installation up via vmware while booted into windows so I can just use the windows VPN.
