Public bug reported: 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
# lsb_release -rd No LSB modules are available. Description: Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS Release: 24.04 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center # apt-cache policy podman podman: Installed: 4.9.3+ds1-1ubuntu0.2 Candidate: 4.9.3+ds1-1ubuntu0.2 Version table: *** 4.9.3+ds1-1ubuntu0.2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu noble-updates/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4.9.3+ds1-1ubuntu0.1 500 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu noble-security/universe amd64 Packages 4.9.3+ds1-1build2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu noble/universe amd64 Packages 3) What you expected to happen I expected the podman package would be atleast close to up to date as atleast over 5.0.0. I expected I could use the package to create and start containers. I expected I would be able to use podman without getting the package from other sources than ubuntu repo. 4) What happened instead The package is too outdated to use and get premission denied when creating and using networks and fails to start every container. I was able to get a updated version from brew, but this is clunky because I want to have multiple users use podman. Please update this package to a functional state. root@ubuntu:/# podman container start infallible_rosalind WARN[0000] Cannot open current network namespace /proc/1101879/task/1101883/ns/net: "open /proc/1101879/task/1101883/ns/net: permission denied" Error: unable to start container "512fb387d33ccd20d37bea80656719bd2a8f07ebb2087fec11e5b247300bfe30": creating network namespace for container 512fb387d33ccd20d37bea80656719bd2a8f07ebb2087fec11e5b247300bfe30: failed to create namespace: open /proc/1101879/task/1101883/ns/net: permission denied ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 24.04 Package: podman 4.9.3+ds1-1ubuntu0.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.8.0-101.101-generic 6.8.12 Uname: Linux 6.8.0-101-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.28.1-0ubuntu3.8 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass Date: Sat Feb 28 11:03:35 2026 InstallationDate: Installed on 2025-10-08 (143 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Server 24.04.2 LTS "Noble Numbat" - Release amd64 (20250216.2) ProcEnviron: LANG=C.UTF-8 PATH=(custom, no user) SHELL=/bin/bash TERM=xterm-256color SourcePackage: libpod UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: libpod (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug noble -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2142929 Title: Podman is outdated and get permission denied as root To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpod/+bug/2142929/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
