My suggestion is to try it on a VM first :-)

Hi!
Thank you for your kind comments and I do hope it is better now. I use it myself to remote unlock a few machines that are encrypted using LUKS and works wonderfully each time! :-)
I hope you succeed in what you're doing :-)

Yes exactly what @AlphaJack said, sorry I wasn't more clear. I Kind of assumed from having seen some of your other packages first that you know the ropes. No worries at all, it's looking better already, and this is something I'm going to consider using. I have a bunch of systems with mashups of openvpn & reverse SSH tunnels used to unlock root file systems and I'm quite looking forward to migrating to wireguard (which I already use heavily for general system use, I just haven't configured it for boot time yet).

Hi,
Aaah, okay that clarifies it immensely! I really appreciate it. This repo was one of the first (probably the first I did) so yes, lots to tidy up.
I shall work on that this week.
Thank you @Alphajack and @caleb for bringing this to my attention. I'll strive to make this a better package.

@dharrigan caleb is saying that the AUR package repo, the one you clone with
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio-wireguard.git
, should only contain PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO, and should tellmakepkg
to download the source files from another location, e.g. a Github repository which in turn does not contain PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO.In this way the developer (you I guess) can freely modify the files on Github, and the package maintainer (you) has only to
makepkg -g
to generate the checksums for the source filesmakepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO
to update the .SCRINFOgit add -A
, commit and push the changesTake for instance mkinitcpio-tinyssh, its repo has only the PKGBUILD and tells
makepkg
to download source file from Giancarlo's repodharrigan commented on 2021-01-25 07:24 (UTC)
Hi,
Thank you for comment, but I honestly have no idea what you are referring to. If you are hinting that it stuffs the Wireguard source into this repo, it does not (it only depends upon Wireguard). Could you elaborate precisely which sources it stuffs into this repo, and I would be happy to fix if it is a problem.
Thank you.

Please update this package so that it downloads the sources from the documented upstream project repository. Stuffing the source in this repository is an explicit violation of Arch packaging standards.
