Error: could not find "netavark" in one of [/usr/local/libexec/podman /usr/local/lib/podman /usr/libexec/podman /usr/lib/podman].  To resolve this error, set the helper_binaries_dir key in the `[engine]` section of containers.conf to the directory containing your helper binaries.

podman 5 dropped CNI support, you need to use netavark and aardvark-dns for networking

[afbjorklund]

Documentation still says "The netavark package may not be available on older Debian / Ubuntu versions. Install the containernetworking-plugins package instead.", where it probably should instruct to install netavark from source?

https://podman.io/docs/installation#building-from-source

It also only shows how to install golang, not how to install rust

[itsCheithanya]

Yes the documentation is not updated then to guide us on how to install netavark and aardvark-dns using rust,maybe @Luap99 the podman team can update it

[afbjorklund]

There is a similar issue with pasta (as compared to slirp4netns), so I think that the team needs help with documentation...

• There is no mention of "pasta" on the install page, only "slirp4netns" podman.io#285

What is the solution for who compiled from source?
