Updating Docker Desktop on Ubuntu

This is mostly a note to myself for when the time comes to update Docker again.

I installed Docker Desktop on Ubuntu 22.04 some time back, you can see how to do that here.

Because I installed it manually, I don’t get automatic updates, so I have to do that manually too.

But every time I get the notification about an update in the application, it provides a link to a page that doesn’t have a link to the download.

So here are the actual instructions to update Docker Desktop.

The steps are -

  • Download the deb file
  • run sudo apt-get install ./docker-desktop-amd64.deb
