docker building from source failure

[sankar.c...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I cloned the git sources of docker and followed the build instructions at

https://docs.docker.com/contributing/devenvironment/

I am doing the build on an openSUSE Tumbleweed machine if that matters. But I believe that should not matter as the docker build process downloaded some huge ubuntu images before starting the build.

The error log is:

make: *** [build] Error 1

If I do the build again, then again I get an error on Step 0 and the downloading of the Ubuntu images takes place once again. I believe this could be a bug.

Step 0 : docker-version 0.6.1

# Skipping unknown instruction DOCKER-VERSION

Step 1 : FROM ubuntu:14.04

 ---> ba5877dc9bec

Step 2 : MAINTAINER Tianon Gravi <admw...@gmail.com> (@tianon)

 ---> Using cache

.

Can someone help me proceed with the fix ?

Also is it not possible (or just not recommended) to do development of docker without downloading these Ubuntu images ?

Thanks.

I'm not sure if this is related, but could this be the cause ?:

https://github.com/dotcloud/docker/issues/6345

I believe a fix for this was available since yesterday, but I think it might not
have been commited yet:
