1) Linux Mint 17 'Qiana' MATE 64-bit 2) Typed 'docker' command when docker is not installed 3) Shell said 'install it by typing "sudo apt-get install docker"'. Doing so installed a completely unrelated package called docker :-(. 4) Either the 'docker' package installs the docker command, or the help says to install the 'docker.io' package. 5) Problem always happens provided 'docker.io' is not installed. bradley@xxx ~/Downloads $ docker ps The program 'docker' is currently not installed.
