Describe the bug

After upgrading to 4.8.9.0 (4.8.8.3 doesn't have this problem), when trying to connect via WireGuard/Amnezia Free connection, it immediately disconnects. This is what it looks like in the terminal:

$ AmneziaVPN

The problem is in the file client/bin/wireguard-go. If you replace it with a file extracted from a previous version, the connection works fine.

The whole problem was that the wireguard-go file did not have execution permission...

@Nethius, I closed this issue, because I am using files extracted from the official installer (for AUR package), and I don't know if the official installer fixes permissions during installation. If not, the problem will also occur in installations done by the official installer.
