IME podman is optimized for use in Redhat based environment. I've had a couple of odd problems when trying to use it on Debian/Ubuntu.
It's not surprising given it's a Redhat project, but it does put me off using it as I'm most comfortable with debian derived environments.

It's pretty easy to create one yourself (from an open MR https://github.com/containers/toolbox/pull/483/files#diff-21...), but it would have been nice to have out of the box.
I've used buildah to set up a C/C++ dev environment in a Ubuntu toolbox at work without any major issues.
EDIT: Looks like they don't provide either an Ubuntu/Debian executable or an Ubuntu root image, which is a bit unfortunate. Odd that someone would make a project and ignore the most common Linux distro...
