It is +designed as a general purpose VPN for running on embedded interfaces +and super computers alike, fit for many different circumstances. + +WireGuard userspace tools require WireGuard support in the kernel (or +as a kernel module). Refer to the wireguard-linux-compat script on +Slackbuilds to build the associated kernel module package. + +openresolv is an optional runtime dependency -- you need it if you want +to use to use wg-quick's DNS option. + +The wg-quick script needs at least nft 0.7 installed, if using nft. +Slackware 14.2 ships with nftables 0.6. As such the build script +will patch wg-quick to always fall back to iptables. + +If you have nftables 0.7 or newer installed (i.e. you are running +-current or a modified 14.2 installation), you may want to leave +wg-quick unpatched by setting NEW_NFT as follows -: + +NEW_NFT=yes ./wireguard-tools.SlackBuild |
