[SOLVED] Installing protonvpn from SBo
by upnort from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5C712)
I'm trying to install the protonvpn-cli package from SBo. All dependency packages are installed.
Any use of the protonvpn command results in the following failure:
Code:Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/protonvpn", line 6, in <module>

raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'certifi>=2017.4.17' distribution was not found and is required by requestsI'm presuming the failure is related to the python-certifi package, but I'm not a Python person and don't know how to fix.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks. :)
