Where are docker man pages?

  • 772

I'm desperately searching for a .deb package with docker man pages. Any idea? I have stable 14.04.

Just to be clear, I'm asking for the man pages for https://www.docker.com/

thx

14.04

    If you have installed "Docker" with the following command:

    sudo apt-get install docker.io

    the man pages can be viewed with:

    man docker

    Even if you have installed Docker with these instructions the man pages can be viewed with:

    man docker

    With this command, you see the files installed for the man pages:

    dpkg-query -L <package_name> | grep "/usr/share/man"

    E.G. docker.io:

    apt-cache policy docker.io

docker.io:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 1.5.0~dfsg1-1ubuntu2
  Version table:
     1.5.0~dfsg1-1ubuntu2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/universe amd64 Packages

  2. Seems there is a bug in ubuntu 14.04.1

    ~$ apt-cache policy docker.io
docker.io:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 1.0.1~dfsg1-0ubuntu1~ubuntu0.14.04.1
  Version table:
     1.0.1~dfsg1-0ubuntu1~ubuntu0.14.04.1 0
        500 http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     0.9.1~dfsg1-2 0
        500 http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages

    install by wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ | sh helps.
