On Ubuntu-old (with cgroups v1 and runc; possibly with other weird settings), the very very first time rootless podman is invoked, it emits a level=error message (but succeeds with exit 0 regardless):

$  podman version
time="2021-05-06T13:13:04Z" level=error msg="overlay test mount with multiple lowers failed, but succeeded with a single lower"
Version:      3.2.0-dev
...

I can't reproduce on RHEL 8.4, possibly because I can't get a recent-enough version of podman. This looks like a very new error.

The message does not seem to happen after the first invocation of podman.

Real-world failure. And another one.

Reason: to catch errors before they surface in RHEL.

One of the Ubuntus is specially crafted to run with cgroups v1
and runc. Although this isn't quite the same as RHEL, it's as
close as we can come in our CI environment, and I suspect it
would have caught containers#10234 (a regression).

Sorry, team.

Also: play kube limits test: skip on all rootless, not just
rootless+fedora. There was a complicated and unnecessary
check in there for Fedora.

Also: workaround for bug containers#10248, a spurious error message on
the first invocation of rootless podman on Ubuntu.Old

containers/storage#885

edsantiago added a commit to edsantiago/libpod that referenced this issue May 10, 2021
The following bugs seem to be fixed:

* containers#6510 (e2e tests) - podman rmi gives "layer not known"

* containers#9915 (buildah-bud tests) - podman build --arch

* containers#10248 - spurious warning from first-ever invocation
  of rootless podman
