The one-line command I recommend for install Mullvad's RPM repo is as follows:
curl --tlsv1.3 -fsS https://repository.mullvad.net/rpm/stable/mullvad.repo | pkexec tee -a "/etc/yum.repos.d/mullvad.repo"
My explanation: This
curl
command enforces strong TLS encryption and pipes the fetched repo file to thetee
(append) command, which requests to run with root permissions and appends the file to the specified path.pkexec
is useful instead of plainsudo
because if the current user isn't in wheel/sudo groul it requests the local admin account to authenticate.
