I think docker-engine has been removed?

sudo apt-get install docker-engine
is not working now.

I changed to docker-ce and it worked perfectly.

The script failed on my system ... Loki Linux 4.13.0-32-generic

I followed the installation guide on Docker and replace the "loki" lsb_release by "xenial" and everything works :

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-key fingerprint 0EBFCD88
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu xenial stable"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install docker-ce
