Public bug reported:

Hi,

the docker.io version currently in trusty/14.04 seems to be too
outdated, even if updated in  trusty-updated.

It cannot interpret clauses quite common in todays Dockerfiles.

E.g. I tried to generate a Firefox sync server by building the
Dockerfile coming with

git clone https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncserver


It fails, because this Dockerfile contains 

ADD Makefile *.ini *.wsgi *.rst *.txt *.py /home/app/syncserver/


which is not interpreted in the expected way. Instead, the first argument (the 
file Makefile) is copyied into the "second" argument, i.e. the file with the 
Name "*.ini *.wsgi *.rst *.txt *.py /home/app/syncserver/"

In other words: It does not expand whitespace or common wildcards, it
just takes everything after the first whitespace as the second
parameter, which clearly violates docker's manual.

Upgrade recommended.

regards
Hadmut
