Hey there Podman team! Name's Brad -- I'm just a hobbyist who's been following Podman closely and wanted to shoot you a quick note. Specifically rootless containers done right, love the Docker-compatible CLI is something I really appreciate. It's the kind of detail that shows you actually care about the craft. Anyway, here's a fun question: do you guys ever send out swag to fans? Stickers or a hat would genuinely make my week. No worries at all if not -- just thought it couldn't hurt to ask! Thanks a ton, Brad Sanchez

Hi guys. I'm trying to /mount/ inside a rootfull container but I fail: -> $ mount /_forISOsToImport/CentOS-Stream-10-latest-x86_64-dvd1.iso /mnt/ -o loop mount: /mnt/: mount failed: Operation not permitted. Am I missing something obvious from container config, perhaps some *capabiities*? many thanks, L.

Podman v5.8.1 Released

Hi all, Podman v5.8.1 is now available. You may view the full details at https://github.com/containers/podman/releases/tag/v5.8.1 Release Notes: -------------- ### Bugfixes - Fixed a critical bug where automatic migration from BoltDB to SQLite after a reboot could perform a partial migration, with some containers in SQLite and some remaining in BoltDB, when Quadlets were in use ([#28215](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/28216)). For those who encountered this bug with 5.8.0 there is no way to automatically recover. If you do not have persistent containers/pods/volumes (i.e. all containers are run using Quadlets) then the easiest option is to move the `db.sql` file in Podman's storage directory to `db.sql.bak` (or similar) and reboot again with v5.8.1 to attempt another migration. Please contact the maintainers with any issues during migration and we will assist as able.
