Advisory ID: RHSA-2018:1427-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Extras
Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:1427
Issue date: 2018-05-14
=====================================================================
1. Summary:
The docker-latest package has been deprecated in the Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 7 Extras channel.
2. Description:
Docker is an open-source engine that automates the deployment of any
application as a lightweight, portable, self-sufficient container that runs
virtually anywhere.
The docker-latest package provides a version of Docker that iterates
outside of the release cadence of Red Hat's container platforms.
The docker-latest package will no longer be updated through the Extras
channel. Instead, Red Hat customers are advised to use the docker package,
which continues to be updated and fully supported.
3. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
