Debian users have a powerful package manager at their disposal that lets them run testing but cherry-pick packages from unstable, e.g. see "Tracking Testing or Unstable" in the apt_preferences(5) manpage. That seems like the appropriate solution if wireguard doesn't have a stable wire protocol yet. So far I've even had success using the wireguard packages from unstable on stretch, just by pinning unstable. -- Robert Edmonds edmo...@debian.org
