as part of an intro tutorial i'm writing, i want to provide a recipe

of that will involve how to first get rid of every trace of any old
docker- or container-related stuff.
if one has no interest in preserving old containers, i'm proposing
running (as sudo, naturally):
$ dnf remove "*docker*"
$ rm -rf /var/lib/{containerd,docker,docker-engine}
i'm fairly sure that's overkill, but the point is to simulate truly
starting from scratch. the above *seems* to work, is there any reason
it would cause problems before i kick in with installing the proper
yum repo file and running:
$ dnf install docker-ce
thoughts?
After running your "dnf remove" and "rm -rf"
commands
run "# locate docker". There may be config files
left behind or other cruft in home dirs.
