Version of Warewulf

What version of Warewulf are you using? Run

Expected behavior

During the development process of a container definition file, I need to import, delete and re-import a container from the Apptainer build process. While it works one time it failed the 2nd time.
The expected behavior is that the import should be possible at any time .

Actual behavior

Sequence of work

• release the container under test from the actual configuration.
  wwctl profile set --yes --container rocky-8 "default"
• build the new container sandbox based on the modified definition file
  apptainer build --sandbox /tmp/rocky-8-def ./rocky-8-def.def
• delete the old container
  wwctl container delete rocky-def
• import the new container from sandbox (here the problem will occur the 2nd time).
  wwctl container import /tmp/rocky-8-def rocky-def
• activate the new container for some nodes
  wwctl profile set --yes --container rocky-def "default"
• Test the running node

During the import step, the following error occurred.
wwctl container import /tmp/rocky-8-def rocky-def
ERROR : could not import image: lchown /var/lib/warewulf/chroots/rocky-def/rootfs/run/user/0/gnupg/d.hkt3xk3ifea4rs471snc7nsb/S.gpg-agent: no such file or directory
ERROR: could not import image: lchown /var/lib/warewulf/chroots/rocky-def/rootfs/run/user/0/gnupg/d.hkt3xk3ifea4rs471snc7nsb/S.gpg-agent: no such file or directory

No matter if I restarted warewulf or reconfigured warewulf, the problem remains.
Only a reboot of the warewulf master server will fix it.

It looks like artifacts from the old container I deleted are preventing a new import.

A test with a new container and then an import was succesfull possible in the error situation.
Only the import into a previously existing container name, in my case rocky-def, is not possible.

Steps to reproduce this behavior

See above.
