Currently distrobox will reserve all subuids/subgids available. This has the unfortunate effect of blocking other containers from running that require their own set of subuids/subgids.
podman has added a feature that lets us restrict the amount of subuids/subgids we request. If available, set the amount to 65536 which is the standard amount needed for a typical Linux single container.
This breaks the ability to run nested containers.
To use this feature you must compile and run the git version of podman. Without it this happens with regular distrobox use:
An alternative solution to this could be an option flag to allow specifying the userns type and flags.
