Hi,

Podman 6.0.1 was released on July 8, 2026, and 6.0.0 on June 24, 2026.
The current version in unstable is 5.8.3+ds1-1.

Podman 6.0 is a major release with significant changes including:
- CNI networking removed; Netavark is now the sole network backend
- New nftables-based firewall rules (iptables no longer supported)
- Configuration file handling rewritten (config files moved to /usr/share/containers)
- Podman machine improvements and rootless port forwarding fixes

The upstream release requires coordinated updates with these packages:

  netavark:    1.17.2 -> 2.0.0
  aardvark-dns: 1.17.1 -> 2.0.0
  buildah:     1.43.2 -> 1.44.0
  skopeo:      1.22.0 -> 1.23
  golang-github-containers-common: 0.67.1 -> 0.68.0

All of these must be updated together with podman to ensure compatibility.

Full release notes: https://github.com/podman-container-tools/podman/releases/tag/v6.0.1

Version 6.1, which includes numerous bug fixes, is now also available.

Please ensure that these important updates and improvements are also
available to Debian users.

thanks
