Using Podman with .NET Aspire's Publish Pipeline

Aspire's publish pipeline calls docker directly and crashes — even if you have Podman installed and ASPIRE_CONTAINER_RUNTIME=podman set.

Why It Happens

ASPIRE_CONTAINER_RUNTIME only controls container image builds. The publish pipeline's compose steps (docker-compose-down, docker-compose-up) doesn't seem to work with podman right now (as of 2026-03-18, 13.1.2).

The Fix: A Docker Shim
