Revisited Aug 2024

The below is related to Slackware 15 and used the sbopkg method, see here for more information about getting sbopkg up and running.

So, I set about building Docker using the following order:

which is required to satisfy dependencies.

Once google-go-lang was installed, the build or runc failed and I found my way to the solution [here]. Essentially, you should build and install google-go-lang and then log out and back in before continuing with runc.

Once the above was done, or running the shell script at /etc/profile.d/go.sh then was good to continue (note, I done this using my current user, with and without sudo and also as root. I eventually had to open a new terminal to get it to work without error).

Once complete, do;

sudo groupadd -r docker

sudo usermod -a -G docker <username>

Note: 

then you need to install docker-cli which I chose to do using sbopkg thanks to Audrius Kažukauskas for this [https://slackbuilds.org/repository/15.0/system/docker/]

In hindslight, this should be added to the above packages order, after docker itself.
