UID/GID errors when launching dock-droid image #18

I'm trying to launch docker.io/sickcodes/dock-droid:latest on Pop_OS 22.04 with podman 3.4.4. I'm getting the following error:

$ docker run -it     --device /dev/kvm     -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix     -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}"     -p 5555:5555     docker.io/sickcodes/dock-droid
Emulate Docker CLI using podman. Create /etc/containers/nodocker to quiet msg.

[snip blob copying]
Error: writing blob: adding layer with blob "sha256:737951ef135522efba7bed8ee87e3d49e44a3b63120c7df4e4e4d821a48c6ecc": Error processing tar file(exit status 1): potentially insufficient UIDs or GIDs available in user namespace (requested 1000:1000 for /home/arch): Check /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid: lchown /home/arch: invalid argument

By the by, /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid are both empty.

Looking at a tip I found online, I added the --storage-opt ignore_chown_errors=true to the command. This gave me a related error:

$ podman --storage-opt ignore_chown_errors=true run -it     --device /dev/kvm     -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix     -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}"     -p 5555:5555     docker.io/sickcodes/dock-droid

Error: OCI runtime error: runc create failed: unable to start container process: unable to setup user: invalid argument

Googling that error message seems to indicate that it is related UID mapping, so I think the two issues are related.
