Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: aidg...@gmail.com Package name : docker-buildx Version : 0.12.1 Upstream Author : Docker URL : https://github.com/docker/buildx License : Apache License Version 2.0 Programming Lang: Go Description : Docker CLI plugin for extended build capabilities with BuildKit
This package is necessary to run "docker buildx". Ubuntu has got a debian package for docker-buildx. https://github.com/canonical/docker-buildx https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/mantic/arm64/docker-buildx AFAIK the only way to use buildkit is to specify the DOCKER_BUILDKIT environment variable or use buildx. Some tools such as VSCode only use buildkit if buildx is available on the command line (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/1409 ). I require VSCode to use buildkit for my tool "debpic" ( https://github.com/aidan-gallagher/debpic) which allows developers to develop debian packages in a container. I think this could be maintained by the same team that packages docker. Kind regards, Aidan
