Feature request description
I am currently testing the new podman quadlet install
feature introduced in podman 5.6.
It would be great if Quadlet files could not only be installed but also updated.
Currently, there is only podman quadlet install, which returns an error if a Quadlet that already exists is to be installed:
This is, of course, great for preventing accidental overwriting. However, it would be great to have a way to update a Quadlet file.
Suggest potential solution
The simplest, but also most basic solution would be to add a --force flag to podman quadlet install. This would overwrite existing quadlets.
The most sophisticated way would probably be a podman quadlet update
. However, this would require the sources of the installed quadlets to be stored somewhere.
Have you considered any alternatives?
At the moment, podman quadlet rm
and podman quadlet install
can of course be used one after the other, but that's not ideal.
