alpine-pkg-glibc
This is the GNU C Library as a Alpine Linux package to run binaries linked against glibc
. This package utilizes a custom built glibc binary based on the vanilla glibc source. Built binary artifacts come from https://github.com/sgerrand/docker-glibc-builder.
Releases
See the releases page for the latest download links. If you are using tools like localedef
you will need the glibc-bin
and glibc-i18n
packages in addition to the glibc
package.
Installing
The current installation method for these packages is to pull them in using wget
or curl
and install the local file with apk
:
wget -q -O /etc/apk/keys/sgerrand.rsa.pub https://alpine-pkgs.sgerrand.com/sgerrand.rsa.pub
wget https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc/releases/download/2.34-r0/glibc-2.34-r0.apk
apk add glibc-2.34-r0.apk
Please Note
⚠️ The URL of the public signing key has changed! ⚠️
Any previous reference to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc/master/sgerrand.rsa.pub
should be updated with immediate effect to https://alpine-pkgs.sgerrand.com/sgerrand.rsa.pub
.
Locales
You will need to generate your locale if you would like to use a specific one for your glibc application. You can do this by installing the glibc-i18n
package and generating a locale using the localedef
binary. An example for en_US.UTF-8 would be:
wget https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc/releases/download/2.34-r0/glibc-bin-2.34-r0.apk
wget https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc/releases/download/2.34-r0/glibc-i18n-2.34-r0.apk
apk add glibc-bin-2.34-r0.apk glibc-i18n-2.34-r0.apk
/usr/glibc-compat/bin/localedef -i en_US -f UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8
