.The Container Tools packages have been updated The updated Container Tools RPM meta-package, which contains the Podman, Buildah, Skopeo, `crun`, and `runc` tools, is now available. Podman v5.0 contains the following notable bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version: * The `podman manifest add` command now supports a new `--artifact` option to add OCI artifacts to a manifest list. * The `podman create`, `podman run`, and `podman push` commands now support the `--retry` and `--retry-delay` options to configure retries for pushing and pulling images. * The `podman run` and `podman exec` commands now support the `--preserve-fd` option to pass a list of file descriptors into the container. It is an alternative to `--preserve-fds`, which passes a specific number of file descriptors. * Quadlet now supports templated units. * The `podman kube play` command can now create image-based volumes by using the `volume.podman.io/image` annotation. * Containers created with the `podman kube play` command can now include volumes from other containers by using a new annotation, `io.podman.annotations.volumes-from`. * Pods created with the `podman kube play` command can now set user namespace options by using the `io.podman.annotations.userns annotation` in the pod definition. * The `--gpus` option to `podman create` and `podman run` is now compatible with Nvidia GPUs. * The `--mount` option to `podman create` and `podman run` supports a new mount option, `no-dereference`, to mount a symlink instead of its dereferenced target into a container. * Podman now supports the new `--config` global option to point to a Docker configuration where registry login credentials can be sourced. * The `podman ps --format` command now supports the new `.Label` format specifier. * The `uidmapping` and `gidmapping` options to the `podman run --userns=auto` option can now map to host IDs by prefixing host IDs with the `@` symbol. * Quadlet now supports systemd-style drop-in directories. * Quadlet now supports creating pods by using the new `.pod` unit files. * Quadlet now supports two new keys, `Entrypoint` and `StopTimeout`, in `.container` files. * Quadlet now supports specifying the `Ulimit` key multiple times in `.container` files to set more than one `ulimit` on a container. * Quadlet now supports setting the `Notify` key to `healthy` in `.container` files, to only notify that a container has started when its health check begins passing. * The output of the `podman inspect` command for containers has changed. The `Entrypoint` field changes from a string to an array of strings and `StopSignal` from an integer to a string. * The `podman inspect` command for containers now returns nil for health checks when inspecting containers without health checks. * It is no longer possible to create new BoltDB databases. Attempting to do so results in an error. All new Podman installations now use the SQLite database backend. Existing BoltDB databases remain usable. * Support for CNI networking is gated by a build tag and is not enabled by default. * Podman now prints warnings when used on `cgroups v1` systems. Support for `cgroups v1` is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. You can set the `PODMAN_IGNORE_CGROUPSV1_WARNING` environment variable to suppress warnings. * Network statistics sent over the Docker-compatible API are now per-interface, and not aggregated, which improves Docker compatibility. * The default tool for rootless networking has been changed from `slirp4netns` to `pasta` for improved performance. As a result, networks named `pasta` are no longer supported. * Using multiple filters with the List Images REST API now combines the filters with AND instead of OR, improving Docker compatibility. * The parsing for a number of Podman CLI options which accept arrays has been changed to no longer accept string-delimited lists, and instead to require the option to be passed multiple times. These options are: ** The `--annotation` option to `podman manifest annotate` and `podman manifest add` ** The `--configmap`, `--log-opt`, and `--annotation` options to `podman kube play` * The `--pubkeysfile` option to `podman image trust set` ** The `--encryption-key` and `--decryption-key` options to `podman create`, `podman run`, `podman push` and `podman pull` ** The `--env-file` option to `podman exec`, the `--bkio-weight-device`, `--device-read-bps`, `--device-write-bps`, `--device-read-iops`, `--device-write-iops`, `--device`, `--label-file`, `--chrootdirs`, `--log-opt`, `--env-file` options to `podman create` and `podman run` ** The `--hooks-dir` and `--module` global options * The `podman system reset` command no longer waits for running containers to stop, and instead immediately sends the `SIGKILL` signal. * The `podman network inspect` command now includes running containers that use the network in its output. * The `podman compose` command is now supported on other architectures in addition to AMD and Intel 64-bit architectures (x86-64-v2) and the 64-bit ARM architecture (ARMv8.0-A).. * The `--no-trunc` option to the `podman kube play` and `podman kube generate` commands has been deprecated. Podman now complies to the Kubernetes specification for annotation size, which removes the need for this option. * Connections from the `podman system connection` command and farms from the `podman farm` command are now written to a new configuration file called `podman-connections.conf` file. As a result, Podman no longer writes to the `containers.conf` file. Podman still respects existing connections from `containers.conf`. * Most `podman farm` subcommands no longer need to connect to the machines in the farm to run. * The `podman create` and `podman run` commands no longer require specifying an entrypoint on the command line when the container image does not define one. In this case, an empty command is passed to the OCI runtime, and the resulting behavior is runtime-specific. * A new API endpoint, `/libpod/images/$name/resolve`, has been added to resolve a potential short name to a list of fully-qualified image references Podman, which you can use to pull the image.
