I'm trying to install docker on a debian wheezy (I want to run some nodejs apps on my server..). I've followed steps described here but when I execute
apt-get install docker-engine
I get the following error:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
docker-engine : Depends: init-system-helpers (>= 1.18~) but it is not installable
Recommends: cgroupfs-mount but it is not installable or
cgroup-lite but it is not installable
Recommends: yubico-piv-tool (>= 1.1.0~) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Being a total noob with docker and debian I don't really know whats causing this error.
below my kernel:
root@xxx:/home/xxx# uname -r
3.10.23-xxxx-std-ipv6-64
Regards,
resolved
This github issue here Helped me resolve this installation problem.
As mentionned by 'lidel' (13 Oct 2015) i have to use backport installs of init-system-helpers ...
i've just added the line below at the end of /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main
and then
apt-get update && apt-get install init-system-helpers
apt-get install docker-engine
and now it works
