Research direction
The issue requests packaging podman for Termux. The body mentions that many dependencies are missing. First, identify all build dependencies of podman from its source repository (https://github.com/containers/libpod). Then cross check which are already available in termux packages and which need to be added. Review comments in this issue for insights into previously attempted or missing dependencies. Focus on the package build scripts in the termux packages repository, specifically the 'build' directory structure. No linked PRs exist; the task is to create the necessary package files.
