There is no mention of "pasta" on the install page, only "slirp4netns"

https://podman.io/docs/installation

So it ends up missing, in the info

  pasta:
    executable: ""
    package: ""
    version: ""

But podman runs OK, with slirp4netns.

  slirp4netns:
    executable: /usr/bin/slirp4netns
    package: slirp4netns_100:1.1.8-4_amd64
    version: |-
      slirp4netns version 1.1.8
      commit: unknown
      libslirp: 4.3.1-git
      SLIRP_CONFIG_VERSION_MAX: 3
      libseccomp: 2.4.3

Apparently you need some special version of "pasta", but there are no feature or version checks for it

Actually, it didn't mention slirp4netns either. Apparently it is only required on Fedora, RHEL and CentOS Stream.

Ideally the build time and the run time dependencies should be separated, but then again binaries would be better.
