#63489: 'podman machine start' can't find /usr/libexec/podman/gvproxy

--------------------+--------------------
I found https://podman.io/blogs/2021/09/06/podman-on-macs.html, which
explains how to use Podman on a Mac. The article explains how to install
`podman` via Homebrew, but of course I wanted to use MacPorts instead.
First I ran `sudo port install podman`, which indeed gave me version
3.3.1, just like in the article.
Then when I ran `podman machine init`, I got an error message saying that
a qemu binary could not be found. I am not sure if `qemu` should be a
dependency of `podman` or if it makes sense to not install that by
default, but I installed it by running `sudo port instal qemu`. Afterwards
running `podman machine init` succeeded.
The next step is running `podman machine start`, but that gives me this
error:
{{{
❯ podman machine start
Error: unable to start host networking: "stat /usr/libexec/podman/gvproxy:
no such file or directory"
}}}
The `/usr/libexec` prefix struck me as problematic, since all of the
`podman` files are under my MacPorts prefix of `/opt/local`, but `port
contents podman` doesn't list a binary called `gvproxy` at all and I
wouldn't know what to install to get it, so this is where I got stuck.
