RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
podman-wait is requiring units for `-i`.
Example:
podman wait -i 1000 5f1841b5522f
Error: invalid argument "1000" for "-i, --interval" flag: time: missing unit in duration 1000
Man page for podman-wait makes no mention of units:
--interval, -i=microseconds
Microseconds to wait before polling for completion
Note, the upstream manpage in master branch on git is a little clearer, but even if says the units are optional:
--interval, -i=duration
Time interval to wait before polling for completion. A duration string is a
sequence of decimal numbers, each with optional fraction and a unit suffix,
such as "300ms", "-1.5h" or "2h45m". Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"),
"ms", "s", "m", "h". Time unit defaults to "ms".
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
podman-2.0.5-5.module+el8.3.0+8221+97165c3f.x86_64
Note, I also see this behavior on Fedora 32's podman-2.1.1-7.fc32.x86_64.
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. podman wait -i 1000 <container id>
Actual results:
Error
Expected results:
Defaults to milliseconds or microseconds, the existing documentation is conflicting.
