Official guide regarding Ubuntu or Debian will get you podman 3.4.4 in case if Ubuntu 22.04 or 4.3.1 in case of Debian 12. The project is in active development with lots of re-architecturing, deprecations and security fixes. There has to be a way to obtain relatively updated binary packages while not being tied to distribution update cadence. There's still https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/unstable/ https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/lib... , but it's not what one could consider production ready. Example of why: https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/5102#issuecomment-737600718 https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/5102#issuecommen...

Oh, that’s not a Podman issue - the Debian world is like RHEL I’m being conservative about major version upgrades. They’re still shipping Python 3.10 and 3.11, too, despite 3.12 having been released and 3.13 waiting in the wings. The build from source instructions work and you can easily maintain your own back ports / PPAs for things like that as the standard mechanism for major upgrades which the core distribution doesn’t want to commit to supporting. Usually you can simply take the updated package definition from the unstable repository and build that, and a quick search suggests many people are doing just that.
