Nvidia-docker is not the same as nvidia-container-toolkit, and neither of them have official support for 21.10 the last time I checked (a few months ago).

It is a component of nvidia-container-toolkit. Take one minute to browse the Pop repository and you'll find three packaging repositories forked from NVIDIA. libnvidia-container, nvidia-container-toolkit, and nvidia-docker. Installing nvidia-docker installs support for the whole system. Now you have functioning NVIDIA support in containers.

You mean the one that you forked 12 days ago? What are you trying to accomplish by acting like it has been packaged all along?

This changes nothing about my story of the Pop OS developers previously thinking it could be replaced with their bespoke custom tooling.

This is a new repository that replaces a pre-existing nvidia-container-runtime repository that we've been using since 20.04 that does the same thing. It still remains that tensorman would not function without NVIDIA docker container support, because it's literally just a convenient frontend for interacting with Docker's CLI.

I never said otherwise. As you know, nvidia-containter-toolkit only very recently merged with nvidia-docker, and you know perfectly well that you have not always packaged or supported nvidia-docker.
