I tried to use an Ubuntu 20.04 image with toolbox (image from here https://github.com/toolbx-images/images). Unfortunately, this image does not work (though other images, like the Ubuntu 22.04, do work).

I am able to create the toolbox without any problems, but I am unable to enter it (Error: invalid entry point PID of container ubuntu-toolbox-20.04).

$ toolbox create --image quay.io/toolbx-images/ubuntu-toolbox:20.04
Image required to create toolbox container.

I created an issue on github in the repository of the Ubuntu images https://github.com/toolbx-images/images/issues/42 . However, the author of the repository suggested that this issue is probably not caused by the image itself, but by an bug in toolbox 0.0.99.2 . The issue should be fixed in 0.0.99.3 (https://github.com/toolbx-images/images/issues/42#issuecomment-1285638958).

Would it be possible to update toolbox to 0.0.99.3 (which was released last December).

BTW, I think an similar error occurs when running the default image (somehow set to fedora-toolbox-33).
