about crun/catatonit

[fantastic2085]

The package downloaded from this link(https://github.com/mgoltzsche/podman-static/releases/tag/v4.4.4) does not include crun/catatonit, Do I need to download from 2 links (https://github.com/containers/crun / https://github.com/openSUSE/catatonit)

The archive that is attached to the release does contain the catatonit binary at /usr/local/lib/podman/catatonit. Though, it does not contain the crun binary but runc (at /usr/local/bin/runc). If you really need crun instead of runc, you could for instance extract it from the minimal container image (ghcr.io/mgoltzsche/podman:4.8.1-minimal) published by this repo.

If I want to use crun, download it from this link(ghcr.io/mgoltzsche/podman:4.8.1-minimal) instead of crun's github(https://github.com/containers/crun ), am I understanding it correctly

I meant you could extract the crun binary from the ghcr.io/mgoltzsche/podman:4.8.1-minimal image but as I just realized the crun binary within the minimal image doesn't work on arm64 machines but on amd64 machines only.
However, since the image build also simply downloads the binary from the crun release you linked, you could as well get if from there - they also provide an arm64 binary if that's what you need.

I added the crun binary also to the normal (non-minimal) podman image and tar distribution now. It should be published with the 5.1.1-1 release later today. Thus, I am closing this issue. Please feel free to re-open it if something is still unclear.
