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 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.
