After a fresh boot:

address@hidden ~$ docker ps
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the 
docker daemon running?
address@hidden ~$ sudo herd status dockerd
Password: 
Status of dockerd:
  It is stopped.
  It is enabled.
  Provides (dockerd).
  Requires (containerd dbus-system elogind file-system-/sys/fs/cgroup/blkio 
file-system-/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu file-system-/sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset 
file-system-/sys/fs/cgroup/devices file-system-/sys/fs/cgroup/memory networking 
udev).
  Conflicts with ().
  Will be respawned.
address@hidden ~$ sudo herd start dockerd
Service dockerd could not be started.
