Public bug reported:
Trying to run `nvtop` in a Ubuntu 26.04 Podman container will fail with
a "Operation not permitted" error.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Pull latest Ubuntu 26.04 image: `podman pull docker.io/library/ubuntu:26.04`
2. Run a container: `podman run -it --rm docker.io/library/ubuntu:26.04`
3. Install nvtop in the container: `apt update && apt install nvtop`
4. Run nvtop: `nvtop`
5. Observe error: `bash: /usr/bin/nvtop: Operation not permitted`
I'm testing on a Fedora 43 AMD64 host with Podman 5.8.1. Ubuntu 24.04
and 25.10 images do not have this problem; `nvtop` runs correctly and
reports there's no GPU to monitor.
Interestingly, `ldd` could correctly show the interpreter used to run
this program, and manually invoking it works:
