[retronet] Looking for a Raspberry Pi owner to help with bleeding edge testing.

[Cornelius Keck]

That would have been too easy:

pi at rpi004w:~ $ sudo apt-get install -y WireGuard
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package WireGuard
pi at rpi004w:~ $ sudo apt-get install -y wireguard
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package wireguard
pi at rpi004w:~ $

Gotta do this the hard way. This might take bit. Stay tuned.
