I got somewhat excited about podman a couple months ago, and then learned that there are painful shenanigans between required versions and the (ancient?) one that is available in the Ubuntu 22.10 package manager [1].

It seemed great until I tried to launch an existing Postgres container that required a more recent Podman version.

The Podman installation page [2] makes some effort to explain alternate installation steps, but doesn't make it clear why, or how far back you'll be.

Not complaining here, just giving folks a heads up.

Despite these issues, it does look like a great project.

This is partly a problem with ubuntu. It sometimes has old software and makes it difficult to upgrade.

I had the exact same problem with docker when it was newer - before the APIs stabilized.
