  Description     : Go client for the Docker Engine API

 This is the github.com/moby/moby/client Go module, the Go client for the
 Docker Engine API, the HTTP API of the Docker daemon. The docker command
 uses it to talk to the daemon, and other Go programs can use it to do
 anything the command-line interface does, such as running containers or
 pulling and pushing images. It depends on github.com/moby/moby/api (ITP
 filed at the same time).
 .
 This is an interim package. The module lives in the moby/moby repository
 that docker.io is built from, but only since upstream 29.0; unstable has
 docker.io 28.5.2. It is needed now by github.com/anchore/stereoscope (ITP
https://bugs.debian.org/1135909), and through it by syft (ITP
https://bugs.debian.org/1124819) and grype (ITP
https://bugs.debian.org/1061720). Once docker.io is updated to 29.8.1 it
 will build golang-github-moby-moby-client-dev itself, taking the binary
 package over with Breaks/Replaces, and this interim source package will
 then be removed.

I intend to maintain this package within the Debian Go Packaging Team.
