Install docker 1.11 on Fedora 21

Question

I need to install docker 1.11.x on Fedora 21. I'm not familiar with this distro so have followed the instructions on the docker website but only 1.9.1 is available.

Any ideas on how to install 1.11? Perhaps I need to point to a different repo?

Answer 1

I simply needed to update fedora to 22

Answer 2

curl -o docker.tar.gz https://get.docker.com/builds/Linux/x86_64/docker-1.11.2.tgz
tar xzvf docker.tar.gz
sudo mv docker/* /usr/bin/

With this code your are downloading the binaries compiled for your by Docker and you are coping that into a $PATH dir in order to use that around your system.
