In case of WireGuard DPKG package being installed, just run: dpkg-reconfigure wireguard-dkms

This will rebuild the module for the current and latest installed kernel+headers.

In some cases, kernel package updates even automatically trigger the rebuild, e.g. on Debian x86 with linux-image-amd64/linux-headers-amd64, AFAIK. But this is up to the package maintainers and depend on the OS/package system.

Best regards

Yes, the kernel did get updated, causing the wg module dependencies to get out of sync. A reboot after the update should solve this, otherwise you may need to run the package's preinst script to get the modules back in sync. Should be no need to reinstall the wg packages.

Hi All

I am running raspberry pi v3 and ran apt-get update and upgrade commands to get upto date. It also ended up updating the kernel i think. I should have paid more attention to what all was getting updated.

After the update wireguard was not running and upon debugging i found that the wireguard kernel module was no longer present. So i uninstalled all wireguard packages and installed them again and the module showed up and on reboot system was back to normal. What i was curious was how should one go about doing os/kernel updates in future in order to avoid this issue?

I am running
