Netavark breaks with nftables 1.1.4 (uploaded to unstable last weekend) due to a change in JSON output (with --json). As a result, starting Podman containers fails with error messages like the following: Error: netavark: nftables error: got invalid json: data did not match any variant of untagged enum NfObject at line 1 column 3666 Error: unable to start container "e6be5bc7827511264391391a7762dbb9fbc693dc9d2953e3462600e089bdb2bb": netavark: nftables error: got invalid json: data did not match any variant of untagged enum NfObject at line 1 column 3666 The upstream bug report is at [1], and updating netavark to 1.16.1 [2] should fix the problem. [1] https://github.com/containers/netavark/issues/1303 [2] https://github.com/containers/netavark/releases/tag/v1.16.1
Control: tag -1 help I've been starting to work on updating to 1.16, but there are apparently a number of dependency updates required. So that won't be easy. I'll keep working on this though. Thanks for reporting!
Control: reassign -1 nftables,netavark reverted the output to the previous behavior in https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1806#c7 The revert seems to be this one: http://git.netfilter.org/nftables/commit/?id=5e492307c2c93 Please apply to the Debian nftables package. thanks.
Control: tags -1 fixed-upstream pending This is fixed upstream in 1.1.5, which was released earlier this week. I am in the process of packaging it. J.
