Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Podman, in the default installation, spits out a lot of warning messages.
I couln’t find any information on that regard in the wiki[0].

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

$ sudo apt install podman
$ podman search --limit 3 quay.io/podman

   * What was the outcome of this action?

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

No warning with no further configuration.

I’ve found a kinda related upstream issue[1].
Is setting `cgroup_manager = "cgroupfs"`, as suggested along the upstream bug report, a reasonable configuration on Debian?

Best regards,
Elias

I got the same thing.  I installed dbus-user-session and rebooted, then this
error message went away and things worked.
