Error initializing network controller: list bridge addresses failed: no available network

Hello,

Above error triggered me when my colleague asked me if I could find a reason why his docker daemon didn’t start. After a day of searching and debugging I think I found the reason and I have documented this in an open ticket that looks related to this issue, or might actually be exactly this issue (https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/33925). I also found several other tickets touching on the same issue but most of them closed without a solution, and several people talking in personal blogs about this issue, but never a real solution.

I would like to get in touch with someone that can look at this together with me, and see if we can find common ground. I’m not a developer, so I really not able to get a pull request ready for my proposed fix, but I think I’m very well able to explain a developer why I think this bug needs some attention.

Best regards,
Jan Hugo Prins
