linux-image: provide wireguard-modules

[amazingfate]

Description

I'm trying to generate a debian iso with armbian's kernel, but live-build keep installing linux-image-rt-arm64. I find it as rec dependency of wireguard-tools. And both linux-image-rt-arm64 from debian and linux-image-generic from ubuntu are providing it.

Provides wireguard-modules solves this problem?

live-build need a apt repo to build. I haven't checked it. I'm finding other way to get rid of the issue so don't be pushed to merge this quickly.

this should eventually be fixed in APA

You mean by introducing virtual kernel package? Otherwise, man packaging should stay "as as" inside build framework. Splitting this is calling for troubles.

[leggewie]

I think that APA is the proper place to document and publish this kind of packaging-related information. There's too much unmaintainable/hard-to-maintain shell code in armbian/build, I would say.

@igorpecovnik I did not mean to stall this PR, just to mention about the future path we intend to take to raise awareness.

Is there a reason NOT to merge this? I am not sure if the package in question does indeed provide wireguard-modules. If it does not, this should NOT go in. But if it does, it should by all means.

[igorpecovnik]

I think this can be merged as we provide wg modules by default and this is (probably) virtual package that makes modules via DKMS. None of this is needed in Armbian.

All Armbian kernels should have Wireguard as module by default. This hopefully solves the issue having non-working upstream kernels installed as recommendation when trying to install wireguard-tools.
