Alpine "rocksdb-dev" package has missing header file "rocksdb/utilities/backupable_db.h"

[Voldemat]

I encountered wheel building failure of python-rocksdb package on alpine after installing rocksdb-dev package. Compiler issue: rocksdb/_rocksdb.cpp:791:10: fatal error: rocksdb/utilities/backupable_db.h: No such file or directory 791 | #include "rocksdb/utilities/backupable_db.h" | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. error: command '/usr/bin/gcc' failed with exit code

I attach dockerfile instructions which can reproduce the issue.

FROM python:3.10-alpine
RUN apk update && apk add rocksdb-dev
RUN pip install python-rocksdb

I believe this is a compat issue moving from v6 -> v7.

This is my Dockerfile:

FROM python:3.9-slim

RUN apt-get update -y --fix-missing \
  && apt-get install -y \
    build-essential \
    curl \
    librocksdb-dev

RUN pip install python-rocksdb

I am on an M1, building using --platform=linux/amd64, and I get the following error:

#0 40.90       gcc -Wno-unused-result -Wsign-compare -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -fPIC -I/usr/local/include/python3.9 -c rocksdb/_rocksdb.cpp -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.9/rocksdb/_rocksdb.o -std=c++11 -O3 -Wall -Wextra -Wconversion -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-rtti

When I use FROM python:3.9-slim-bullseye, I do not get this error. Debian version in python:3.9-slim is bookworm.

Here is the bullseye librocksdb-dev package. Here is the bookworm librocksdb-dev package.

This is a known issue for python-rocksdb: https://github.com/twmht/python-rocksdb/issues/102
