Docker on Slackware

There's a Slackware package for Docker on Slackbuilds, but there is a small caveat when installing.

Steps to install

As root:

# git clone https://github.com/dslackw/slpkg.git
# cd slpkg
# python setup.py install
# slpkg update

Next you must install google-go-lang

slpkg -s sbo google-go-lang

IMPORTANT!!!

Log out (from root) and log back in again before you continue to install the rest of the docker packages:

# slpkg -s sbo tini
# slpkg -s sbo docker-proxy 
# slpkg -s sbo libseccomp 
# slpkg -s sbo runc 
# slpkg -s sbo containerd 
# slpkg -s sbo docker
# slpkg -s sbo docker-compose
