Hi,

thanks for packaging podman. Unfortunately I discovered some issues:

* no default configuration provided. This makes it hard to use podman :-)

* rootlessport is not found:

Error: could not find "rootlessport" in one of 
[/gnu/store/r6yjlvicgz1r9nb1q6zwd79gq
94l34wa-podman-4.2.1/bin /usr/local/lib/podman /usr/libexec/podman 
/usr/lib/podman].
  To resolve this error, set the helper_binaries_dir key in the 
`[engine]` section o
f containers.conf to the directory containing your helper binaries.

Another one:

* catatonit i not found — this one is used when building pods

Error: building local pause image: finding pause binary: exec: 
"catatonit": executable file not found in $PATH

For rootlessport:

Quick work-around:

export CONTAINERS_HELPER_BINARY_DIR=$(realpath $(dirname $(which 
podman))/../libexec/podman)

Proper solution: Add an entry to the config file:

     // HelperBinariesDir is a list of directories which are used to 
search for
     // helper binaries.
     HelperBinariesDir []string `toml:"helper_binaries_dir"`

For catatonit:

Patch path in pkg/rootless/rootless_linux.c

Hey Hartmut,

are you sure the catatonit issue is fixed? I'm still getting same error message when running a `podman play kube ...` command.
