imagebuilder fails with unauthorized: authentication required when it should not (proper auths in ~/.docker/config.json)

[sallyom]

These works (several repositories, here's an example ):
buildah bud -f Dockerfile.rhel7 -t myimage:local .
docker build -f Dockerfile.rhel7 -t myimage:local .

This fails:
imagebuilder --allow-pull -t myimage:local -f ./Dockerfile.rhel7 .
Fails with:

$ imagebuilder --allow-pull -t quay.io/sallyom/myimage:local -f ./Dockerfile.rhel7 .
--> Image registry.svc.ci.openshift.org/ocp/builder:golang-1.12 was not found, pulling ...
unable to pull image (from: registry.svc.ci.openshift.org/ocp/builder, tag: golang-1.12): unauthorized: authentication required

Workaround is to pre-pull with docker whatever you need:
docker pull registry.svc.ci.openshift.org/ocp/4.2:base
docker pull registry.svc.ci.openshift.org/ocp/builder:golang-1.12
(has to be in docker storage rather than buildah,podman)

/reopen
if this is not going to be fixed, is not better to move away from imagebuilder and use another option that works?
