Instructions in INSTALL outdated for Alpine 3.17 #1591

Closed jmarshall closed 1 year ago

jmarshall commented 1 year ago

The INSTALL instructions recommend installing libressl-dev:

https://github.com/samtools/htslib/blob/c1634e743aab4822e05fbb7dc41fd6ab21ec6982/INSTALL#L265-L269

  However on Alpine 3.17 this produces:

ERROR: unable to select packages:
  libressl-dev (no such package):
    required by: world[libressl-dev]

Apparently with 3.17 (released last November), Alpine has switched to OpenSSL.
