+**Update (2023-05-13):** I upgraded several VMs from [Bullseye][] (and
+one from [Stretch][]!?!) to [Bookworm][], without any significant
+issues.
+
+After upgrading to [Bookworm][], I migrated two VMs from [Docker][] to
+[Podman][] and installed [Podman][] on a third VM.  Useful tip:
+[Rootless][rootless containers] [Podman][] does not agree with an
+[NFS][]-mounted home directory.
+
+One workaround is to create a local (that is, non-[NFS][]), user-owned
+directory and then symlink `~/.local/share/containers` to it, like so:
+
+```bash
+# create local containers directory for user pabs,
+# then symlink ~pabs/.local/share/containers to it.
+sudo mkdir -pm 700 /data/containers/pabs && \
+  sudo chown pabs:pabs /data/containers/pabs && \
+  ln -s /data/containers/pabs ~pabs/.local/share/containers
+```
+
+Alternatively, the [Podman man page][] suggests configuring
+`~/.config/containers/storage.conf` and pointing  `graphroot` at a local
+directory.
