Docker on Arch
==============
The AUR lxc-docker and lxc-docker-git packages handle building docker on Arch
linux. The PKGBUILD specifies all dependencies, build, and packaging steps.
Dependencies
============
The only buildtime dependencies are git and go which are available via pacman.
The -s flag can be used on makepkg commands below to automatically install
these dependencies.
Building Package
================
Download the tarball for either AUR packaged to a local directory. In that
directory makepkg can be run to build the package.
# Build the binary package
makepkg
# Build an updated source tarball
makepkg --source
