podman: new error (used to work before) on podman run invocation: Cannot get exit code: failed to get journal cursor: failed to get cursor: cannot assign requested address

Description

Recently I’ve been getting the following error on a CI that used to run without problems. The CI runner is on bare metal (Manjaro) Linux, and may have been updated in the meantime, but I can’t be sure this error is related to an update of my podman version (currently: 3.2.2).

ERRO[0002] Cannot get exit code: failed to get journal cursor: failed to get cursor: cannot assign requested address

when executing (“call-graph-like” representation):

Makefile -> podman run -> script.sh -> exec go build …

I figured it might be caused in some way by the podman log-driver, but using

podman run --log-driver=none ...

doesn’t have any effect.

I’m at a loss what might be causing this or how to debug this issue…

Output of podman version:

podman version 3.2.2
