podman_import can't refer to imported image

[rkotech]

Hey,

Thanks for the awesome podman collection, it makes it so easy to work with containers from ansible.

I have an issue at hand though:

• I pull an image from public hub that I want to use, but it runs services as root.
• I want to change it to run stuff as a certain user, so this is what I try to do:

1. pull hub-image
2. run container using hub-image
3. create user 'wildcat' in container
4. export container as c.tar
5. import c.tar as new-image
6. run new-container as user wildcat

My problem is between step 5. and 6., since when I use podman_import, the imported image does not have a property I could refer to in step 6. When I list images, the imported image does not have a REPOSITORY or TAG, and the image ID is not returned by podman_import, so I can't use that either.

$ podman images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
<none> <none> f286a120753a About a minute ago 531 MB

Am I doing something wrong?

cheers,
Robert
