Package: sosreport Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
This bug doesn't affect Debian ( no DebianPlugin for docker) but I am filing this bug for sosreport in debian to stay aligned. [Impact] The docker plugin in sosreport doesn't collect informations for Ubuntu. In docker.py for the Ubuntu Plugin, the docker command is set to 'docker.io'[1] which seems to be a old workaround that has been removed[2], thus the docker plugin is no longer calling an existing docker binary which as a result doesn't collect docker informations in Ubuntu. [1]- Plugin : docker.py # Name collision with another package requires docker binary rename docker_cmd = 'docker.io' [2]- docker.io package : debian/changelog docker.io (1.3.1~dfsg1-2) unstable; urgency=medium * Remove deprecated /usr/bin/docker.io symlink - added as a temporary shim in 1.0.0~dfsg1-1 (13 Jun 2014) - unused by package-installed files in 1.2.0~dfsg1-1 (13 Sep 2014) -- Tianon Gravi <admwig...@gmail.com> Fri, 07 Nov 2014 13:11:34 -0700 [Test Case] # Install sosreport from the Ubuntu archive $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install sosreport # Run sosreport with docker plugin only or all loaded plugins (for the sake of testing docker plugin the "-o" is more appropriate Docker plugin only : $ sosreport -o docker All loaded plugins: $ sosreport -a # Extract the sosreport*.tar.xz file generated by the above command found in /tmp # Look in "/path_to_sosreport/sos_commands/docker/" and note that all files are empty with "0" size. [Regression Potential] No regression, this is a trivial fix that will allow sosreport to start collecting the docker informations again. If for some reasons, a regression is found, it would be 100% limited to docker plugin of sosreport and not affecting the functionality of sosreport nor other plugin. [Other Info] Additional information about the context can be found here : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/docker.io/+bug/1338768 The bug has been reported upstream already[3] and two similar patches has been proposed[4]. Let's see which one will be accepted/merged.

The docker plugin is currently broken in sosreport. In docker.py[2] for Ubuntu the docker command is set to 'docker.io'. docker_cmd = 'docker.io' The docker.io package used to have a docker.io binary but this was reverted in this debian/changelog from Ubuntu Xenial/16.04 (LTS): docker.io (1.3.1~dfsg1-2) unstable; urgency=medium * Remove deprecated /usr/bin/docker.io symlink - added as a temporary shim in 1.0.0~dfsg1-1 (13 Jun 2014) - unused by package-installed files in 1.2.0~dfsg1-1 (13 Sep 2014) -- Tianon Gravi <admwig...@gmail.com> Fri, 07 Nov 2014 13:11:34 -0700 The Docker Community and Enterprise Editions (docker-ce and docker-ee packages) also use the plain docker binary and this change is necessary to make the sosreport docker module work again. There are currently two different pull requests that fix this issue: https://github.com/sosreport/sos/pull/1009 https://github.com/sosreport/sos/pull/1012 We should SRU this fix once one of them is accepted.
