• DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Fine tune install script, add optional client configs for only local network access, only server access or only DNS nameserver usage (Pi-hole combi). Do never overwrite existing configs on install.
• DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Allow client setup install by skipping server config steps if user chosen by user.
• EDIT: PR merged into dev: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/pull/2420

Known issues

DietPi functionality

• DietPi-Globals | G_* functions are not available via sudo: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/2135
• DietPi-Config | Enabling WiFi + Ethernet adapters, both on different subnets, breaks WiFi connection in some cases: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/2103

  • Otherwise a custom routing table is required.

  • Forwarded to Debian bug tracker: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=913083
• DietPi-Config | When bringing up WiFi interfaces with some WiFi adapters, a power management error is thrown. However this does not affect functionality: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/2198
