Installing docker and docker-compose on ubuntu needs many steps. [1] [2]

E.g. for Arch you only need pacman -S docker docker-compose

  • Why is the apt for docker-compose 'outdated'? (Version 1.24 vs. 1.21) How can I help to change this?
  • Why use Docker another repository which I have to add?

My understanding about apt and how to maintain is a little bit poor. And I can't find something like in the the Arch package list, where you can read the package file. (Example)

    Possible duplicate of Why don't the Ubuntu repositories have the latest versions of software? In Ubuntu 16.04 and later docker and composer can be installed from the default Ubuntu repositories. Open the terminal and type: sudo apt install composer docker docker-compose – karel Apr 30 '19 at 12:58

    You probably need to ask the people from docker. Installation -from- Ubuntu is the normal 3 or 4 lines: (possibly add keyserver,) add ppa for package, update system, install package – Rinzwind Apr 30 '19 at 13:00
  • Tanks @karel and @Rinzwind In the case of docker-compose the version is too old for me.

    Is for apt here a place to show the package file like for Arch? Or is there a way to contribute easy?

    Ubuntu Packages Search has the info online. The same information can be fetched from the terminal with apt policy docker-compose and rmadison docker-compose – karel Apr 30 '19 at 13:18
  • Tanks, I have found on launchpad https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/docker-compose what I have searched. – Wie Apr 30 '19 at 13:44
