Please advise.
What curl command line did you use to download the package. I just tried re-installing that version on an ER-X but I scp'd the file that I had previously downloaded from my windows machine.
I guess you should use -L or --location option for curl to properly follow the redirect(s) on github.
Like for example:
curl -L -o e50-v2-v1.0.20220627-v1.0.20210914.deb https://github.com/WireGuard/wireguard-vyatta-ubnt/releases/download/1.0.20220627-1/e50-v2-v1.0.20220627-v1.0.20210914.deb
sudo dpkg -i e50-v2-v1.0.20220627-v1.0.20210914.deb
from the manpage of curl:
-L, --location
(HTTP) If the server reports that the requested page has moved to a different location (indicated with a Location: header and a 3XX response code), this option will make curl redo the request on the new place.
@vchrizz - Thank you! your instructions worked!
Using command line provided by vchrizz I was able to install wireguard. Thank you. Issue is closed.
