I tried to install Wireguard on my Orange Pi Zero Plus but without luck.

I've followed the install instructions for Debian on Wireguard website, installed the correct linux-headers for my board, updated the packages, but i get this error:

apt install wireguard
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 wireguard : Depends: wireguard-tools (>= 0.0.20191012-1) but 0.0.20190702-3 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks! So i understand i would need to wait for an updated package of wireguard-tools from the repository to install the new version and get the corresponding new version of wireguard from the repository, instead of the built in version?

i too have the same problem of unmet dependencies, i did 

apt install wireguard-tools
modprobe wireguard

i also tried to do 

apt install wireguard-tools=1.0.20200319

to resolve the dependency but this command fails with no such version found.

 

apt install wireguard still fails citing wireguard-tools version required is >=1.0.20200319 but 0.0.2201912 is to be installed. please guide me in correct direction.
