upgrading raspberry pi required me to re install wireguard

Yes, the kernel did get updated, causing the wg module dependencies to get out of sync. A reboot after the update should solve this, otherwise you may need to run the package's preinst script to get the modules back in sync. Should be no need to reinstall the wg packages.

So i uninstalled all wireguard packages and installed them again and the module showed up and on reboot system was back to normal. What i was curious was how should one go about doing os/kernel updates in future in order to avoid this issue?
