Package: docker.io Version: 1.0.0~dfsg1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainers,
As far as I see, most images on the Docker Hub Registry is built for amd64 architecture, while docker.io package of Debian exists on other architectures like armhf, armel and i386; on which the prebuilt images can't be run. (docker run gives "exec format error"). I don't know about the other architectures, but Debian i386 is capable of running amd64 binaries, if the processor of the system and the kernel running are both 64 bit. linux-image-amd64 package is already available in i386 repository and installing & rebooting with it is enough for docker to run amd64 containers, so IMHO it is appropriate for docker.io package to recommend/suggest the amd64 capable kernel on i386 and also briefly mention the situation in the README.Debian.
