Add CI job with alpline linux #799

Closed t-b closed 2 years ago

t-b commented 4 years ago

SKA is using tango in docker using a angstrom linux 1. As this linux also uses a different libc, musl, it would be nice to get a CI job for testing. We can use alpine for that, this is also common to use for docker and has musl as well.

* [ ]  We need to compile omniORB ourselves

I wouldn't expect much trouble here. Last time I compiled omniORB on alpine (I think 3.11) standard ./configure && make install approach worked without any problems, So it's basically four extra lines in our dockerfiles (including wget + tar calls). If compilation time turns out to be a problem, we may consider putting image with pre-built omniORB into our dockerhub and using that as a base for CI tests.
