doesn't work for me

[aiwaniuk]

btw, we may want to have for some time released two distributiions ubuntu and alpine (if for some reasone customer can't use alpine and they will be unhappy with migrating from ubuntu)

[that-kampe-steak]

Does this fix https://github.com/SumoLogic/sumologic-collector-docker/issues/103 ?

Looks like image still using apt instead of apk for alpine too

[hchoudharysumologic]

Fixed some of the apk issues but getting this installation error, looks like the collector deb can't be installed on this system.

[hchoudharysumologic]

@aiwaniuk do you think we should try installing the rpm version on this instead? Otherwise looks like this is not feasible on alpine since we do install the deb version as a required dependency on the ubuntu docker image now

[aiwaniuk]

@hchoudharysumologic Well, I"m not sure how exactly but I guess it is possible somehow install and run our collector on alpine (I'm not so familiar with this distro to know details) and it is excepted that installing it will look a bit different than in ubuntu

[belong-events]

This PR lacks reasoning why this change is needed. I personally like Debian (In this case a derivative, Ubuntu) images a lot. Because all the utilities within the container are not crippled to a bare minimum, and it is easy to extend and debug and do custom modifications. Only reason I could see for Alpine is the size.

Perhaps there could be two images in parallel? Debian-based and Alpine-based.
