I think we have libnl. Party trick:

sudo moss it 'soname(libnl-3.so.200(x86_64))'

Replace the soname with whatever lib you need and moss will install if it's in repos. Keep the remaining strange syntax. Lemme know how it goes ^^

Ah, apologies. I tried searching for the installed package and it does show installed. I guess I'm confused as to why the PIA installer is not detecting it.

Might be that it's waiting for the other dependencies? No worries, it's not a deal breaker but I'll wait till the other dependency packages are added and try again later. Thanks Ikey!
