Description Tom Sweeney 2023-01-17 15:04:37 UTC

Description of problem: As reported by Yiqiao Pu in email, Podman v4.4 RC1 can not find the /etc/cni/net.d file as it should be able to. This works in Podman v4.3 and earlier.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Podman v4.4 RC1

How reproducible:

Creating a container or a pod fails.

Steps to Reproduce:
Checked our CI jobs for it. Seems there is something wrong with the podman 4.4 to work with the cni network backend in the build. When I try to create a container or pod, it always reports that it can not find dir /etc/cni/net.d. Here is some output from my test machine:

# podman create --name test_cni_dir quay.io/libpod/busybox top



Actual results:
Error: stat /etc/cni/net.d/: no such file or directory

[root@kvm-06-guest34 ~]# ls /etc/cni/

[root@kvm-06-guest34 ~]# 


Expected results:
Expect this to work without error.
