It's in powershell but not in WSL terminals

I see you (assuming it was you) created https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/2622 for this. That was a good call - I took a look at the code and there is nothing I see that would put

docker-buildx

in WSL distros. We should definitely have this! Regarding the differing versions of

docker buildx

and

docker-buildx

, I see the same thing on my Windows install. I had thought that the only place the docker CLI would pick plugins up from was

~/.docker/cli-plugins

, but I'm clearly wrong because I don't see anything in this directory, and yet I can call

docker buildx

yup! that was me

But yeah these are definitely bugs, we will get to them when we have cycles for it. PRs are always welcome too :)

I need features in 0.8.1+, and I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why they seemingly weren't available, despite the references to 0.8.2 in the install scripts

I see. I don't think there is anything preventing you from manually installing the versions you need. I believe all of our code is written to not overwrite versions of programs that are already there. Worst case scenario you could put the versions in a directory in your

PATH

that takes precedence

that's what was crazy to me about the 0.7.1 vs 0.8.2 thing. I did completely fresh installs from scratch and it still came up that way

Yeah that's the code. It seems it never was written for

docker-buildx

. We should probably make it generic, since I believe there are plans to integrate more docker CLI plugins
