Steps To Reproduce

1. create a oci container image

FROM quay.io/almalinuxorg/almalinux-bootc:9

2. generate disk image with imagebuilder
3. run disk.qcow2 with virt-install

$ wget https://github.com/gbraad-dotfiles/upstream/releases/download/250223/almalinux-disk.qcow2 \
     -O base.qcow2
$ sudo virt-install \
    --name almalinux --os-variant fedora-eln \
    --cpu host --vcpus 4 --memory 4096 \
    --import --disk ./base.qcow2,format=qcow2

Anything else?

I have the same setup running with fedora-bootc:41 and centos-bootc:stream9 without this issue. So for some reason I never see as lease in /var/lib/NetworkManager

I have several dev environments defined. AlmaLinux-based is here: https://github.com/gbraad-dotfiles/upstream/tree/main/.devcontainer/almalinux

Is this still a problem as of AlmaLinux 9.6?
