sudo dpkg -i $1.0.20210606-2-$e50-v1-v1.0.20210606-v1.0.20210914.deb dpkg-deb: error: 'histappend=1.0.20210606-2--v1-v1.0.20210606-v1.0.20210914.deb' is not a debian format archive

For my EdgeRouter X this is the right file but it does not work.

The command you are running contains $ signs which indicate to the shell that you want it to replace them with variables. Due to this, the filename that dpkg actually receives is invalid. Please find the correct filename using ls and use that for the dpkg command. As an example:

$ curl -OL https://github.com/WireGuard/wireguard-vyatta-ubnt/releases/download/1.0.20210606-2/e50-v2-v1.0.20210606-v1.0.20210914.deb
