Is it? He defines a .network file in that butane config without it won't work. Not really obvious. I'm sure this has a use-case and it's nice to have but personally I'm not convinced. You can switch on user-namespaces in docker-daemon or even run docker itself rootless - I guess if you are in Redhat land and use podman anyway it's an alternative but for instance where is this thing logging into? journalctl --user? Can I use a logshipper like loki with this? Is there something like docker compose config that shows the fully rendered configuration? I personally don't see the point and it feels like overly complicated.

- INTPenis 3y ago.network is only required if you need a network, just like you define networks in docker compose for some containers to have one shared private network.
- nisa 3y agoyeah spend some time on the docs for this and it's pretty straight forward - the article and the repo kind of omits this but it's also for a different usecase. Was just irritated when I wrote that comment. It's really some oci container to systemd shim system that uses podman.
