Docker-in-Docker fails to install

[deepsweet]

Only happens with the latest Bookworm image. No errors when fixed to Bullseye.

19.52 ╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install

19.52     If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
19.52     create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
19.52     Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make

19.52     If you wish to install a non-Debian packaged Python application,
19.52     it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a
19.52     virtual environment for you. Make sure you have pipx installed.

I believe there are multiple solutions to be applied from the CLI side: https://stackoverflow.com/a/75722775.

I think this is due to docker compose V1. The Feature should install compose V2 by default.

Same error with "dockerDashComposeVersion": "v2".

Same error with "dockerDashComposeVersion": "v2".

Thanks for trying. Sorry for posting inaccurate information.

We already have an issue open for tracking this devcontainers/features#577
If anyone's interested, we will appreciate a contribution to add support for bookworm for the Python Feature (else, we plan to get to it soon)

Closing as duplicate, feel free to comment on the main issue.
