Summary
vp run pi fails when Docker is not installed, even if Podman is available.
Environment
- Podman version: 5.7.0
- Context: running in a Python virtual environment on Linux
Reproduction
(venv) root@v220:~/DEV/VibePod# vp
run pi
Docker is not available: Error while fetching
server API version: ('Connection aborted.',
FileNotFoundError(2, 'No such file or
directory'))
Expected behavior
vp run pi should run without requiring Docker when Podman is installed and available.
Actual behavior
The CLI attempts to use Docker and exits with an error when Docker is not available.
Proposed direction
- Detect Podman availability and support it as a first-class runtime backend.
- Allow
vp run to execute with Podman when Docker is missing.
- Improve error messaging to suggest Podman fallback or configuration options.
