Description

I want to run Odoo 16 from docker following the instructions written on the README file.
When executing the command line on § 'Start an Odoo instance': $ docker run -p 8069:8069 --name odoo --link db:db -t odoo,
I get the following docker error:

Emulate Docker CLI using podman. Create /etc/containers/nodocker to quiet msg.
Error: unknown flag: --link
See 'podman run --help'

the --link flag is deprecated : https://docs.docker.com/network/links/
The command line needs to be updated on the documentation.

Start in the README section “Start an Odoo instance” and inspect the documented docker run command. Replace the obsolete networking usage with the current documented approach, then verify that the instructions still describe how to start Odoo with its database connection.
