Hey dkg,

I wanted to do the same thing with the meta package, so I have included
your patch in the ubuntu ppa repo.

I have pushed the packages to the PPA, so will be up in 10min.

Here the commit with the meta package patch:
https://github.com/EggieCode/wireguard-ppa/commit/1c502977301cfc1695996
ba68fa260576f0f0cad

Thanks dkg for the patch!

Greetz,
Egbert
