The Pulse Secure Client itself is typically provided somewhere on an organisation's file servers. Other writeups elsewhere that I've looked at describe the same problems I encountered, but were either out-dated, overly localised, or did not provide me the critical information I needed to complete the job. This Gist describes the steps I took to install Pulse Secure Client on my Ubuntu-based Linux machines, including a Pixelbook running GalliumOS 3.1 and Dell desktops running Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04. (For one, UWO.ca suggests "PulseSecure's understanding of Linux package managers and distributions in general seems very limited.") The user is then either forced to use a Windows machine, somehow, or fail VPN access when traveling with their Linux notebook. However, because Linux comes in many different flavors, the standard Pulse Secure Client installer does not always run to completion.
