podman requires qemu-system on

❯ podman machine init
Looking up Podman Machine image at quay.io/podman/machine-os:5.1 to create VM
Extracting compressed file: podman-machine-default-amd64.qcow2: done
Error: exec: "qemu-img": executable file not found in $PATH

The fix to this for me was to install qemu-system before podman machine init.

sudo apt update

sudo apt install qemu-system
