Hello,
I see a lot of so called dangling images with
$ podman images | more
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
localhost/sles15-sp6-v73 latest fcdbe8e4e245 21 hours ago 15.3 GB

...
$ podman images | grep '<none>' | wc -l
34
Yesterday, the number was even 57, then I did 'podman image prune' and
even 'podman image prune -a', the latter with the effect that I have had
to re-build my container 'localhost/sles15-sp6-v73'. But even after the
'-a' the dangling ones did not went away completely.
This causes a serious disk space problem. I run the 'podman images' into
a file, edited it a bit to sum up the used space with bc(1):
$ cat sum-space-with-bc.sh
echo '15300+ 20200+ 18300+ 13700+ 13600+ 13600+ 13300+ 13300+ 7670+ 7650+ 7630+ 7130+
4330+ 4240+ 4240+ 4240+ 1530+ 568+ 568+ 568+ 568+ 568+ 568+ 568+ 7150+ 7600+ 7510+ 7200+
6230+ 8840+ 5850+ 5520+ 5520+ 5520+ 5520+ 5520+ 8360+ 130' | bc
$ sh sum-space-with-bc.sh
260406
This number 260 GB matches nearly what I do see in the file system:
# du -sh storage/*
1.0K storage/defaultNetworkBackend
1.3M storage/libpod
266G storage/overlay
^^^^
2.1M storage/overlay-containers
8.3M storage/overlay-images
71M storage/overlay-layers
1.0K storage/storage.lock
0 storage/userns.lock
The podman version is 4.7.2 and the OS is SuSE SLES 15 SP6.
Should I file an issue in https://github.com/containers/podman/issues ?
Thanks
matthias

I, Matthias, I am not at war with Russia.
Я не воюю с Россией.
Ich bin nicht im Krieg mit Russland.
