We've dropped support for 18.04, and suggest you upgrade. I've tested the installer on Debian 10 and it seems to work. Have you verified the integrity of the package via GPG? As far as we're aware, we've not changed Debian installer between these two releases.
What we have done is deprecated support for older kernels and the daemon might no longer be able to run on your kernel. It does seem to run on Debian 10 with Linux 4.19.0.
You can also install the new version, see it fail, install 2023.2, and send a problem report from that - we should still see a daemon log from the previous installation.
@gene1wood I had the same issue but it works now on Ubuntu 20.04.6. It was time to update anyway. But why update if it works? Mullvad was the first thing that broke for me using Ubuntu 18.04.

Ah, that's too bad. You may have jumped the gun by a month as 18.04 finishes it's standard support lifecycle on May 31, 2023 (or it may have been intentional)
Have you verified the integrity of the package via GPG?
Yes, the deb file I have, when verified against the signature on mullvad, reports as good

I suspect the issue isn't the kernel if it works on Linux 4.19.0
as Ubuntu 18.04 is on 5.4.0-99

I've that just now. I sent them and put this GitHub issue in the description field.
Issue report
Operating system: Ubuntu 18.04
App version: 2023.3
Issue description
Running 2023.2 and all versions prior, installation of the Mullvad client via Debian package succeeds without error.
With the release of 2023.3, two problems occur
Repository is broken
Upon downloading the Mullvad client 2023.3 Debian package for Linux and attempting to install, this message is given
Here's the full context
Uninstalling Mullvad and re-installing the 2023.2 version (the previous version) installs correctly and does not give this error
Connecting to Mullvad system service
After install 2023.3 (and getting the error above), launching the client brings up this screen and hangs with the message "Connecting to Mullvad system service"
When I uninstall and revert back to 2023.2 by downloading the deb package release of 2023.2 from GitHub and installing it, the problem no longer occurs (so it's new in 2023.3)
I would send a report from the app but I can't get it to fully launch to be able to.
If there are
/var/log/mullvad-vpn/
logs that would help, let me know and I can provide them.
