Dear Maintainer,
Most of my machines run on debian testing with docker installed form the debian
repository. For the longest time I could build docker containers with buildkit
enabled. But at some point it stopped working. At first I thought that would be
a temporary thing with some packages updating. These things happen from time to
time on debian testing, and usually they resolve after a couple of days or
sometimes weeks. But this problem with buildx has now existed for at least two
months.
Simple containers that don't require features from buildx still build.
I didn't really find useful information on how to resolve by searching the internet.
To reproduce, on an up to date debian trixie installation execute the following:
DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build --output some_files
I get the following error:
ERROR: BuildKit is enabled but the buildx component is missing or broken.
Install the buildx component to build images with BuildKit:
https://docs.docker.com/go/buildx/
Since I installed docker from the repository I would prefer not having to
install buildx manually.
It seems that this would require this additional component:
https://github.com/docker/buildx
Was it really available in Debian's package of Docker previously? It
seems strange since this component has not been packaged in the past. I
don't remember having it working.
