Description

Description

When trying to remove a manifest it works only if I switch to the sudo user with sudo su and not the sudo prefix. When switching to the sudo user and removing the manifest it works, but when prefixing the command with sudo, it states a manifest that I specified doesn't exist.

Reproduce
  1. sudo docker manifest rm
Expected behavior

sudo docker manifest should remove the manifest I specify.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the exact manifest-removal command with a sudo prefix and after switching to the sudo user, recording the manifest name and resulting error. Compare the user, environment, Docker context, and registry state in both cases; done means the specified manifest is removed reliably with the sudo-prefixed command.
