Dear Dmitry, Thank you for your response. I also noticed the lack of /etc/container/storage.conf. Its absense did not cause any error, but storage.conf is mentioned at the bottom of the buildah man page as https://github.com/containers/buildah/blob/master/docs/buildah.md#files
So inclusion of storage.conf at /usr/share/doc/buildah/examples or /etc/containers might be suitable. storage.conf(5) is mentioned in https://github.com/containers/buildah/blob/master/docs/buildah.md but I didn't find storage.conf(5) in the Debian package.
