Podman is a tool that allows you to run and manage containers without needing a daemon. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Podman on the latest version of Fedora Server.
Before proceeding with the installation, please ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
As a security measure, ensure that your system is up-to-date by running the following command:
sudo dnf update -y
You may need to enter your password to authenticate the command.
By default, Podman is not included in the Fedora Server repositories. Therefore, you need to add Podman repository to your system by executing the following command:
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/stable/Fedora_`rpm -E %fedora`/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable.repo
This command will add the Podman repository to your Fedora Server.
Now that you have added the Podman repository, it is time to install Podman. Run the following command:
sudo dnf install podman -y
This command will install Podman and its dependencies.
To verify that Podman is installed and working correctly, run the following command:
podman version
This command will display the version information of Podman, including the build date, commit, and version number.
