Summary

openshell doctor check only ever validated Docker. Podman users got a check that's irrelevant to their setup.

Related Issue

Closes #3694

Changes

  • Detect the local runtime: Docker if installed, Podman otherwise.
  • Podman check reports version via podman info --format {{.Version.Version}}.
  • Failure output names the right env var (DOCKER_HOST or OPENSHELL_PODMAN_SOCKET).
  • Docker stays the default and existing behavior is unchanged when Docker is present.

Testing

  • cargo test -p openshell-cli
  • cargo clippy -p openshell-cli --all-targets -- -D warnings
  • cargo test --test docker_preflight --features e2e-docker (added two Podman cases, all 6 pass)
  • Manual check with real Docker and with Docker hidden from PATH (Podman path only)

Checklist

  • Follows Conventional Commits
  • Commit is signed off (DCO)

Falls back to Podman when Docker is absent. Docker stays the
default. Closes NVIDIA#3694.
