Problem with fedora-minimal image

Hi, I recently migrated to a new laptop with silverblue. On my previous machine I was sucessfully building some containers FROM fedora-minimal. However now I get some real strangeness. There seems to be no dnf.conf file in the image. (Not sure if this was the case previously) I can’t run either a microdnf clean all or a rm -rf /var/cache/yum. The message that the directory is empty should not be an issue with rm -rf, and in addition, the directory is empty. Any ideas on this?

podman run -it fedora-minimal bash

(microdnf install procps-ng or whatever)

bash-5.0# microdnf clean all

(process:109): libdnf-WARNING **: 09:11:01.916: Loading “/etc/dnf/dnf.conf”: IniParser: Can’t open file

This seems to be a bug with microdnf. I check on an old fedora-minimal image (f28) and the image does not have a dnf.conf file. Could you file a bug at Issues · rpm-software-management/microdnf · GitHub
