Following the RHEL8 documentation, Podman version 4.4.1 is installed instead of 5.2.2.

# yum module install -y container-tools:rhel8
# podman version

According to the documentation
> The container-tools:rhel8 is the fast application stream, containing most recent rolling versions of the tools.

which does not appear to be the case.

Research direction

Start by locating the RHEL8 documentation passage containing the container-tools:rhel8 commands and the rolling-version statement.
