how to install libcontainer docker in place of lxc-docker

On my Ubuntu 14.04 machine, I ran the following command, to make sure that I'm running the latest docker:

sudo curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ubuntu/ | sudo sh

During the install, I have noticed the following:

Setting up lxc-docker-1.5.0 (1.5.0)...

This leads me to believe that I had lxc-docker running, and not the libcontainer version.

How do I explicitly replace this lxe-docker 1.5 with libcontainer docker 1.5?

That's just the name of the package. The name docker was already being used by another package in Ubuntu, so Docker decided to call this one lxc-docker. It became a bit unfortunate when Docker moved to libcontainer.

To check which execution driver you're using, run docker info:

$ docker info
...
Execution Driver: native-0.2
...

If you see "native" here, you're using libcontainer.
