Hi,
While trying to use podman for a current task where I am testing an
Ansible role being developed with the Molecule testing framework
(
https://molecule.readthedocs.io), I am running into some trouble
with the /sys/fs/cgroup mounting.
All the containers I'm trying to run with this volume being mounted into
the container (to allow systemd to run inside podman) gives me errors
like these:
$ podman run -d --name centos7 --privileged=True --volume
/sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw --tty=True molecule_local/centos:7
/sbin/init

Running "podman run -it molecule_local/centos:7" works fine.
Any ideas? I guess I could run podman with sudo (and this might be
required for this particular use case), but if possible, I'd prefer
avoiding it.
This is btw on Debian buster/bullseye, with the 1.6.1-1~ubuntu19.04~ppa3
package installed. Since there was no native Debian package installed, I
added the Ubuntu PPA and was hoping (*cough*) that it would work
reasonably well...
Kernel is 4.19.0-6-amd64.
Best regards,
