Updated my home desktop machine recently ( LMDE 5 -> 6 ) and have been
going through the various helper scripts, fixing bugs, adding features,
etc.  One is a Wireguard peer manager made for managing ProtonVPN peers
that uses the zenity(1) tool as a decent looking GUI.  I made this when
I found the ProtonVPN Linux client did not work well the further one
gets from Gnome-derived DEs, i.e. the Dwm tiling window manager from
the suckless.org project.

Anyway, the peer manager worked fine after the upgrade but I found some
things I thought could be done better as well as wanting the ability to
enable/disable a peer at boot-time from the GUI:

With the exception of the wireguard* and openresolv packages everything
else usually is native in distributions like Linux Mint Debian Edition.
