Hi,

Since upgrading to Fedora 31 (5.5), wireguard (latest) does not start after
rebooting.
It does start with no problem at all after rebooting, by manually running
wg-quick.

This is what I get:
-- Reboot --

Feb 22 01:19:51 myservername systemd[1]: Failed to start WireGuard via

Running
wireguard-dkms.noarch                         1:0.0.20200215-2.fc31
         @jdoss-wireguard
wireguard-tools.x86_64                        1:1.0.20200102-1.fc31
         @jdoss-wireguard

Any idea what's causing this?

Thanks,
