Hello team,

The Readme file states that the kernel module for RHEL/CentOS can be installed from your COPR repository.

But, unfortunately, the repository contains too old builds:

Are you planning to update packages in your COPR repository? Or is it completely abandoned?

+1 on this. I guess only Ubuntu's PPA has the most up to date packages.

I am running Rocky 9 and just found out that EPEL9 has a very old module:

# awg --version
wireguard-tools v1.0.20210914 - https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-tools/
# modinfo amneziawg | grep ^version
version:        1.0.0

and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS has the most recent one:

$ awg --version
amneziawg-tools v3.1.20260812 - https://amnezia.org
$ modinfo amneziawg | grep ^version
version:        3.1.20260812

Confirming this on RED OS 8 (RHEL-like, aarch64, kernel-lt 6.12.101-1.red80).

COPR package (1.0.20241112) fails to build:
prepare-sources.sh runs yumdownloader --source kernel, but RED OS ships
the kernel as kernel-lt and has no public source RPM repositories, so the
pre_build step fails with exit status 255.

Current master builds fine:
Since master no longer needs the full kernel source tree, the manual build
works out of the box (steps from README > Manual build) with only dkms
and kernel-lt-devel installed:

make dkms-install
dkms add -m amneziawg -v 1.0.0
dkms build -m amneziawg -v 1.0.0
dkms install -m amneziawg -v 1.0.0

The module loads successfully:

$ modinfo amneziawg | grep ^version
version:        3.1.20260812

So rebuilding the COPR packages from current master would most likely fix
installation on RED OS and other RHEL-based distros.
