Hey,

I can't use the CLI (it works fine via networkmanager) :/

cf:

[fenrir]:~/vpn/protonvpn-cli [master]                    
$ lsof -i | grep openvpn                                 
[fenrir]:~/vpn/protonvpn-cli [master]                    
$ killall -SIGINT openvpn                                
openvpn: no process found                                
[fenrir]:~/vpn/protonvpn-cli [master]                    
$ sudo pvpn -c
