Raspbian is based on Debian 10, Buster, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspbian#Version_history and Debian 10 is stable, says https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian_releases#Release_table yet your tutorial does Now, add the WireGuard repository to your trusted sources list: echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ unstable main" | sudo tee --append /etc/apt/sources.list.d/unstable.list Mixing Debian's unstable into Raspbian-based-on-Debian-stable is worrying. Perhaps that's out of date and could be stable now. I don't know. > On the third and fourth attempts I tried to run the Tutorials at: > > https://engineerworkshop.com/blog/how-to-set-up-wireguard-on-a-raspberry-pi/ It says echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ unstable main" | sudo tee --append /etc/apt/sources.list > That failed due to duff keys. > > and > > https://www.ovpn.com/en/guides/wireguard/raspberry-pi-raspbian It too. sudo -i echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ unstable main" >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/unstable.list > I think that anyone wanting to install wireguard on a Pi at the moment > is probably better off waiting until it makes its way into the > mainstream repository. https://www.wireguard.com/compilation/ looks easy. ;-) -- Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2020-07-07 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
