I would like to have an option to uninstall Wireguard, compile the latest and reinstall again. But I can't see "make uninstall" to be implemented. So what are my options to get a clean reinstallation of Wireguard?
I was playing with Checkinstall to install it as a package instead. git clone https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-tools make -C wireguard-tools/src -j$(nproc) cd ~/wireguard-tools/src/ sudo checkinstall -y But even though the package is created and installed, it doesn't behave the same way as if I installed it with "make install". For example there is no /etc/wireguard, even though it said it created it: ========================= Installation results =========================== 'wg' -> '/usr/bin/wg' 'man/wg.8' -> '/usr/share/man/man8/wg.8' 'completion/wg.bash-completion' -> '/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/wg' 'wg-quick/linux.bash' -> '/usr/bin/wg-quick' install: creating directory '/etc/wireguard' 'man/wg-quick.8' -> '/usr/share/man/man8/wg-quick.8' 'completion/wg-quick.bash-completion' -> '/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/wg-quick' 'systemd/wg-quick.target' -> '/lib/systemd/system/wg-quick.target' 'systemd/wg-quick@.service' -> '/lib/systemd/system/wg-quick@.service' ======================== Installation successful ========================== Is Wireguard not compatible with Checkinstall? Have I missed anything? Is there a better way to uninstall the compiled version of Wireguard cleanly without using checkinstall? Many Thanks, Houman
