@flouthoc this is happening most likely because the pull is happening in Buildah, and buildah does not create a podman event. Any thoughts on how we could fix this?

[flouthoc]

I can think of two ways:

• Either perform pull first (in podman) and then call buildah API
• Extend Buildah API which can allow callers to set callback function : So podman can configure a callback function for buildah to generate events.
