Where do you find Alpine-compatible wheels? Many ones uploaded to PyPI aren't, because e.g. both GitHub actions [0] and Azure pipelines [1] don't have Alpine images. Is it reasonable to expect maintainers of small, open-source libraries to write and maintain their own Alpine runners?
I guess if you know your company's workflow depends on Alpine, you can build and cache them yourself. But the wider community doesn't benefit from that.

- williamjackson 6y agoI was not aware of prior work so I maintain Alpine wheels for packages I use personally in a GitHub org. https://github.com/alpine-wheels/index https://github.com/alpine-wheels/index Besides my own needs, only one other person has requested additional packages, which I was happy to add. Maintenance is minimal, mostly just approving pull requests created by Dependabot.
