Yeah, I think that can be the approach down the line.

Antonio, for now until we get system containers fully worked out
can just make docker-latest require docker-current and symlink to
docker-current? We can batch the

That sounds good. However, I didn't fully understand how to achieve that. Do you mean that docker-latest shouldn't build docker-latest anymore but just require "docker" and make a symlink out of it? 

updates together and have them be the
same version. which shouldn't be too much of a maintenance burden
because the docker-latest rpm would never change anything other than
version #.

This would allow us to "revive" docker-latest in the future if we
changed our minds and we can revisit this strategy for f26.

Thoughts?
