docker-1.8.1 (docker-engine) should be out soon.  I believe lokesh is
working on packaging up the other docker content for Fedora.
I am not a big fan of changing the name of docker to docker-engine at

probably have to alias it anyways.)

Lokesh can you add a provides docker-engine to docker package.
