When Docker is used, ensure that the `docker` command line tool is available on `PATH` under the MSYS2 shell. This can be accomplished by adding, e.g.,

export PATH="$PATH:/c/Program Files/Docker/Docker/resources/bin/"

to the `~/.bash_profile` script under the MSYS2 shell and reopening the shell.

### System Requirements
- About 15GB of free disk space for the default component selection
- When Docker is used, installed files are split between the Sailfish SDK installation directory and Docker's [data-root](https://docs.docker.com/config/daemon/#docker-daemon-directory). Ensure that both provide enough free space.

- Sailfish IDE needs restart after changing SSH port of a Docker based build engine
- Error starting the build engine on [Linux hosts with cgroups v2](https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/issues-with-installing-sailfish-sdk-docker-with-debian-bullseye-11/4454)
- It is usually possible to revert back to cgroups v1 by adding `systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=false` to the host kernel command line
- On some systems package manager gets stuck or crashes due to unreasonably high file descriptor limit and builds will not get past initialization phase. You may stop build engine with `sfdk engine stop` and then use this workaround:
sfdk engine exec sudo tee /etc/security/limits.d/95-nofile-sdk-fix.conf <<END
