playwright-screenshots only works in rootful Docker #31174
Description
Steps to reproduce
We have a script to update the playwright screenshots, but it requires rootful Docker, which is forbidden by our IT security policy (with good reason, since rootful Docker gives passwordless root access to your machine).
Outcome
Attempting to run playwright-screenshots under (rootless) podman gives:
$ yarn test:playwright:screenshots
yarn run v1.22.22
$ playwright-screenshots --project=Chrome
