    Podman: A tool for managing OCI containers and pods.

  • Podman version 4.4 was released upstream this week. It brings a large variety of changes including bug fixes and features. Among those I find most exciting are the introduction of quadlet, the many changes around podman kube, and a new networking mode called pasta.

  • buildah

    A tool that facilitates building OCI images.

  • Last week, Buildah version 1.29 was also released. The prune command has been added to clean intermediate images as well as the build and mount cache.  Support for the –group-add option to the from and build commands was added. One useful feature of this, it to use the –group-add keep-groups option, which allows rootless users to take advantage of their group access to file and devices mounted into the build containers. And the –cache-from and –cache-to options for the build command now allow for multiple sources. This can be used to improve the speed of builds, especially in CI/CD environments.
