Title: why the crictl command did not list the images

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2023-11-12)
  
  when I tried to use crictl to list all images like this in Debian 12:
  
  ```
  root@k8sslave01:/etc# crictl images
  IMAGE               TAG                 IMAGE ID            SIZE
  
  ```
  
  did not show any images. the ctr list works fine:
  
  ```
  root@k8sslave01:/etc# ctr images list
  REF                                                           TYPE                                                      DIGEST                                                                  SIZE      PLATFORMS                                                                    LABELS

  still could not show by crictl command.
