podman_container is not idempotent due to cgroups, sdnotify and cidfile about ansible-podman-collections HOT 3 CLOSED

containers.podman                        1.14.0 
containers.podman                        1.13.0 
containers.podman                        1.13.0 

Seems like all those are old, latest is 1.15.0. Not sure why you have different versions together, btw. Can you please check where are they coming from?
Probably this is like in #774 related to the transition to a new version.
Please install ansible-galaxy collection install --force containers.podman and let's see if it is still an issue.

It seems like the bottom 2 entries were from /home/xxx/venv/lib64/python3.12/site-packages/ansible_collections and the topmost one was from /home/xxx/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections. Not quite sure why the virtualenv's entry appeared twice.

I ran your command to upgrade the collection and it installed it in the /home/xxx/.ansible folder. I removed the collection from the other locations also. Tried running the playbook again and got the same output as before (cidfile, cgroups and sdnotify)

So it's from systemd generation, I think I found:
https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/0e57573d1e14bc4417b211116f716bb829bf770d/pkg/systemd/generate/containers.go#L352-L356

		startCommand = append(startCommand,
			"run",
			"--cidfile={{{{.ContainerIDFile}}}}",
			"--cgroups=no-conmon",
			"--rm",
		)

Let's disable it..
