Package: docker.io
Version: 1.8.3~ds1-2
Severity: important

Hi,

I have just installed docker.io to try it out, and it kept failing complaining
that "Devices cgroup isn't mounted". I checked that /sys/fs/cgroup/ was mounted
correctly (and not from fstab), and it took me a while to realise that there
are more trees to mount.

I see that docker recommends cgroupfs-mount, but since I don't install
recommends by default, I did not get it. Once I installed cgroupfs-mount,
docker started correctly. So I'd say this should be a dependency, but maybe
there is a reason for the recommends?

In any case, the init script should check this and give the user some guidance
(including not exiting successfully), as this is certainly not obvious for most
users.
