On WSL2 how to enable cgroups-v2?

[simmarn]

I am running podman-machine-default on WSL2.

Everytime I use podman command I get

WARN[0000] Using cgroups-v1 which is deprecated in favor of cgroups-v2 with Podman v5 and will be removed in a future version. Set environment variable PODMAN_IGNORE_CGROUPSV1_WARNING to hide this warning.

How do I enable cgroups-v2? I have not found anything on the web.

A quick google search brings up this
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73021599/how-to-enable-cgroup-v2-in-wsl2

I don't use windows so no idea if that works or not.

Thanks! I missed the information about that the .wslconfig can be created if missing.
