-## Install Podman on Fedora from RPM Repositories
-Fedora 27 and later provide Podman via the package manager.
-```console
-sudo dnf install -y podman
-```
-
-*Optional*: If you've already installed podman on Fedora and you're feeling
-adventerous, you can test the very latest podman in Fedora's `updates-testing`
-repository before it goes out to all Fedora users.
-```console
-sudo yum distro-sync --enablerepo=updates-testing podman
-```
-
-If you use a newer podman package from Fedora's `updates-testing`, we would
-appreciate your `+1` feedback in [Bodhi, Fedora's update management
-system](https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/?packages=podman).
-
-## Install Podman on Fedora from Source
-Many of the basic components to run Podman are readily available from the Fedora RPM repositories.
-In this section, we will help you install all the runtime and build dependencies for Podman,
-acquire the source, and build it.
-
-### Installing build and runtime dependencies
-```console
-sudo dnf install -y git runc libassuan-devel golang golang-github-cpuguy83-go-md2man glibc-static \
- gpgme-devel glib2-devel device-mapper-devel libseccomp-devel \
- atomic-registries iptables containers-common containernetworking-cni \
- conmon ostree-devel
-```
-### Building and installing podman
-
-First, configure a `GOPATH` (if you are using go1.8 or later, this defaults to `~/go`), then clone
-and make libpod.
-
-```console
-export GOPATH=~/go
-mkdir -p $GOPATH
-git clone https://github.com/containers/libpod/ $GOPATH/src/github.com/containers/libpod
-cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/containers/libpod
-make
-sudo make install PREFIX=/usr
-```

- * [runc Installation](https://github.com/containers/libpod/blob/master/docs/tutorials/podman_tutorial.md#installing-runc) - Although installable, the latest runc is not available in the Ubuntu repos. Version 1.0.0-rc4 is the minimal requirement.

+This will mainly affect Debian, Ubuntu, and related distributions, or RHEL where no subscription is active (e.g. Cloud VMs).
-**NOTE**
+#### ostree
-If using an older release or a long-term support release, be careful to double-check that the version of `runc` is new enough (running `runc --version` should produce `spec: 1.0.0`), or else [build](https://github.com/containers/libpod/blob/master/docs/tutorials/podman_tutorial.md#installing-runc) your own.

+
+#### runc

+Version 1.0.0-rc4 is the minimal requirement, which is available in Ubuntu 18.04 already.
