Error: read-only image store assigns the same name to multiple images

Hello! We have ran into this issue:

$ podman-hpc images
Error: read-only image store assigns the same name to multiple images
$ podman-hpc image ls
REPOSITORY                            TAG         IMAGE ID      CREATED      SIZE
<IMAGE_NAME>  v1.3        7589b976db7f  2 weeks ago  15 GB
$ podman-hpc images
Error: read-only image store assigns the same name to multiple images
$ podman-hpc ps
CONTAINER ID  IMAGE       COMMAND     CREATED     STATUS      PORTS       NAMES
[no running containers]

The only similar issue I could find is:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1952637

I checked the images.json and layers.json on the login and compute nodes and I found no duplicates. We had to remove the entire overlay* directories and start from scratch.

Have you ran into this before? Or know of methods to debug this?

Yes. I think we have a fix for this. The issue I believe was collisions in the name history field that wasn't being managed. I need to check on the status of that fix.

In case it's helpful, I'm also seeing the same issue intermittently---but not reproducibly.
