I tried to import wireguard config file in Network—>VPN
but I cannot do this. can you enable support this option?
Wireguard Support
Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately GNOME 43 (the version of the desktop that Endless OS 6 is based on) does not provide UI to configure Wireguard in Settings: this was introduced in GNOME 44. We do not have a timeframe to update to a newer GNOME but I would not expect this to happen this year.
We do include the wireguard
kernel module, so you might be able to configure a Wireguard VPN from the command line. If you are feeling adventurous you might do this as follows:
- Download the
wireguard-tools
package usingapt download wireguard-tools
- Extract the
usr/bin/wg
andusr/bin/wg-quick
files and place them in/var/local/bin
(you will probably need to create this directory) - Extract the
lib/systemd/system/wg-quick.target
andlib/systemd/system/wg-quick@.service
files and place them into/etc/systemd/system
Consult https://manpages.debian.org/bookworm/wireguard-tools/wg.8.en.html or https://manpages.debian.org/bookworm/wireguard-tools/wg-quick.8.en.html for instructions on how to use these.
We could potentially include the wireguard-tools
package in a future Endless OS release if it is useful even without a GUI. Let me know how you get on.
Hey, yes, including wireguard-tools
is a great idea.
I’ve added wireguard-tools
to the OS – it will be in 6.0.1 at some future point (and any betas leading up to it)
