Re: [ANNOUNCE] WireGuard Snapshot `0.0.20181007` Available

[Sebastian Gottschall <s.gottschall@newmedia-net.de>]

i do not use the defined master. i just checkout the git revisions 
defined by your snapshots. but since you release snapshots  2 times per 
week sometimes its still ends up on a heavy changing module
but that should not be the topic here. the topic is what leads wireguard 
to fail on his system. so we need to track down first which hardware he 
is using since i do support alot of devices with alot of different cpu 
platforms. so please stay on topic and do not speculate too much
