Got the answer from this github issue comment
.
Summary of above commit:-
echo deb http://get.docker.com/ubuntu docker main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 36A1D7869245C8950F966E92D8576A8BA88D21E9
apt-get update
apt-get install -y lxc-docker-1.3.3
If permission issue then use sudo
as:
echo deb http://get.docker.com/ubuntu docker main | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 36A1D7869245C8950F966E92D8576A8BA88D21E9
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y lxc-docker-1.3.3
Bonus Tip:
Don't know which version? Then hit Tab
after lxc-docker-
as:
sudo apt-get install -y lxc-docker-<Hit Tab here>
to see list of available docker versions.
I find easier to check available versions with
sudo apt-cache policy docker-engine
and then install the one you want:
sudo apt-get install docker-engine=1.7.1-0~trusty
It consists on simply following the instructions from docker docs https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/ubuntulinux/, but selecting a particular version
How I did it on my laptop (btw https://get.docker.com/ubuntu/ not available anymore):
$ wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ | sh # install resources
$ apt-cache showpkg docker-engine # show version which are available
$ apt-get install docker-engine=1.8.2-0~willy # install 1.8.2 version
$ sudo apt-mark hold docker-engine # prevent upgrade on sys upgrade
$ docker version # check installed docker version
