Hi,

first of - the wireguard module is already included as part of the Proxmox VE kernel modules, so you do not need the wireguard-dkms module.
Except if you are on a very old version, in which case you should upgrade anyway!

Also, the package for the kernel headers is called proxmox-headers-<version>, e.g. proxmox-headers-6.8. But you don't really need them anyway, as said above.

Im stuck here and i don't see a way forward

Well, you seem to run some outdated script and it tries to install wireguard-dkms - a package which is neither exists nor is required. Cannot really help you with that, unfortunately.

Also, be aware that loading kernel modules must be done on the host, not inside the container.
