Fedora packages

Want to get this… 😄

#28

[morph027]

Should be quite easy with fpm ... i can have a look...

[rugk]

Thanks, that would be awesome!

Actually, as the new emerging standard of VPNs this should IMHO get into the standard installation of Fedora or so. (So you can use it out-of-the-box, just as OpenVPN VPNs that are AFAIK included in the standard installation.)

You can try this one.

Okay, copr is nice enough and good to know we have something, but I would obviously prefer a "real"/official package…

also /ccing the author of that copr package: @timn

I'm happy to give the package to someone. I do not have the time to work on it anymore. Once wireguard is in Fedora proper this package could be migrated there, too.

You can build it by yourself :) Which I did for fc29 with current master branch ...
But looks like smth went wrong.
I do not have a new entry for VPN (I assume that wireguard entry should be here) in network manager (And yes, I did a system reboot).

System logs are empty :(
@timn @max-moser if you have some time we can try to debug the issue and send the packet to russianfedora/rpmfusion repos.

Check my spec file (also in in the SRPM) if that works for you. Probably forgot to install some file in the proper place. As I mentioned earlier, I do not have time to be part of this effort. I do not see a reason why this package would not be suitable for Fedora proper, no need to aim at rpmfusion. That would make it more accessible. My two cents.

Has anyone of you been able to build this on Fedora 30?

I have all available NetworkManager libs installed and autogen.sh gives me this error:

configure: error: Package requirements (NetworkManager >= 1.7.0
                        libnm-util >= 1.7.0
                        libnm-glib >= 1.7.0
                        libnm-glib-vpn >= 1.7.0) were not met:

Package 'libnm-util', required by 'virtual:world', not found
Package 'libnm-glib', required by 'virtual:world', not found

I also checked the requirements of the spec file from timn and Fedora 30 does not provide packages for:

NetworkManager-glib-devel
libnm-gtk-devel

@red667 now NM has wireruad support built-in and you can create/connect/disconnect to VPN by console

Great, but it still seems it has no GUI interface for it. I am still arguing for getting it into the GUI.
