Alpine Linux package trigger scripts failing on CRI-O

I recently created a self-managed Kubernetes cluster using the CRI-O container runtime.

WireGuard is a new VPN protocol and software, using modern cryptography (ChaCha20, Ed25519…). It is simple to use and configure, similarly to OpenSSH, you just need to share public keys between peers, compared to OpenVPN where you need to manage a private certificate authority (which has different advantages). Please note though that WireGuard is not made for having anonymous (not logged) clients unlike how OpenVPN can be used for, since it uses static IP addresses instead of DHCP (servers need to track the connections of clients). The main implementation lives in Linux kernel (in a kernel module) but other software implementations exist.
