Thats fine, my provisional build will work till then.

I ended up using a statically built podman-remote,
as some of the containers did not have a compatible libc.
(nabbed from 
https://github.com/mgoltzsche/podman-static/blob/master/Dockerfile-remote)

so a podman-remote-static package would be a good idea
