Package: docker.io
Version: 1.6.0+dfsg1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I did install a Virtual System with jessie netinstaller as docker.com
suggestes Docker is in jessie. Then I found its only in unstable.
I upgraded to stretch and then to sid.
apt-get install docker.io failed with
addgroup: The group `docker' already exists and is not a system group. Exiting.
dpkg: error processing package docker.io (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
docker.io
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I added -xv to the postinst script and these are the lines visible:
root@dockertest:~# DEBCONF_DEBUG="developer" dpkg --configure -a
Setting up docker.io (1.6.0+dfsg1-1) ...
#!/bin/sh -xv
set -e
+ set -e
case "$1" in
configure)
if [ -z "$2" ]; then
addgroup --system docker
fi
;;
abort-*)
# How'd we get here??
exit 1
;;
*)
;;
esac
+ [ -z ]
+ addgroup --system docker
addgroup: The group `docker' already exists and is not a system group. Exiting.

root@dockertest:~#
work-around:
root@dockertest:~# groupmod -g 900 docker
root@dockertest:~# apt-get install -f
docker installed.

I'm closing this - it's not a bug.
Actually, this just saved your bacon :)
If there are users in a group called `docker' and it's not a system
created group, they now have root on your host system (yes, *host*
system).
Perhaps it'd be better to have a debconf prompt. Patches welcome. It's
surely not grave.
Things you do to your system outside main that break packages in main
isn't a bug on us ;)
Closing, thanks!
