Dear #podman users,
am I looking in the wrong spot or is there no systemd timer for "podman image prune"? I thought I had seen something like this in relation to the podman-auto-update service, but fail to find anything on that?
How are people solving the cleanup of images?
@johanneskastl I don’t remember having an image prune timer, but it should be pretty trivial to write up. Could probably copy the auto update one and just swap out the command.
@komish Yes, that this what I did for now.
The auto update timer has prune as ExecStartPost, but without the -a option...
@johanneskastl sounds reasonable to me! I’ve gotta work that in, too. Capped out my home lab node storage with image layers just the other day 
@johanneskastl
looking at the arch pkg at least there is reference to pruning...
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/podman auto-update
ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/podman image prune -f
@angrylinus Yes, but for some reason I needed to add -a to that command to get it to properly clean up in my case...
@johanneskastl I don't use it myself. Sounds like a bug report needs making.
