@acui just cut a new upstream Podman release candidate for Podman v4.4. This release candidate includes updated RELEASE NOTES. Final release for Podman 4.4 is planned in the next two weeks time unless a major bug is uncovered. As always, feedback is welcome and file issues should you find some.

Today we released Podman 4.4. release candidate 2. We expect RC 3 to be cut later this week. Release candidate 3 will have release notes and will have vendored in all of our library dependencies. We are still planning 4.4 General Availability for the end of January.

It’s Friday and I thought I would share something I learned today. Like many things, the documentation is out there but it took a little finesse to put it all together. So here is hoping it helps someone in the future who hits this searching for an answer to a problem. We want the netavark-dhcp-proxy,…

Happy New Year from the Podman team! This year will begin with a change. Since the inception of Podman, it has used the Container Networking Interface (CNI) plugins as its core networking stack. Our users began to push us to expand our network stack capabilities to implement more advanced networking and domain name serving. Those…

It is coming together nicely — Update When we released Podman 4, we also released a new “network stack” that in large part was provided by netavark. At that time, a couple of features were missing for us to achieve parity with the previous network stack based on CNI Plugins. One key missing feature was…

I have yet to bump into perfect software. Bugs, failures, and short-comings are the reality of software developers. They often have upsides whether it might be learning about a new area of code in a larger application or coming up with ideas to prevent problems. We had an interesting problem brought to our attention recently…

You might not know this but Podman has been running with less capabilities then Docker for a while now. Not only does Podman default to running rootless but even in rootless mode, it runs tighter then Docker. Docker runs with 14 root capabilities while Podman runs with 10. However, this has been via distribution defaults…

From running containers without root privileges to using REST API’s in Podman 2.0, these 12 guides can enhance how you use the Pod Manager tool. I must say that I am quite jealous of Podman. While I had to stay at home for most of 2020, Podman went on a world tour at a velocity…
