Description of problem: The build base images are missing the extended file attributes for for file capabilities on at least /usr/bin/newuidmap and /usr/bin/newgidmap but likely all files who depend on that though I haven't checked if there are more. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. podman run --rm registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora:42 getcap /usr/bin/newgidmap Actual results: no output (no capabilities) Expected results: /usr/bin/newuidmap cap_setuid=ep Additional info: The work around for build that use this as base is `rpm --setcaps shadow-utils` which correctly restore the missing file caps.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora Linux 42 is end of life.

Changing "Version" to 43 as this affects it (and currently, 44) as well.
