Installing Gcc from Source on Alpine

Installing GCC from source on Alpine

It turns out that in this particular case one needs to install mpc1-dev, gmp-dev or mpfr-dev. I was missing out on mpc1-dev.

sudo apk add mpc1-dev

Install a specific GCC/G++ Version inside an Alpine Linux container

If you wish to use an older version of GCC, you can download the source from GCC 4.8.0
and then build gcc from source.

You can give all the commands as part of your Dockerfile and then build the alpine image with the required GCC. If you don't want to create image, you can simply follow the steps mentioned to build gcc in alpine container.

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 when installing pip packages on alpine docker image

Missing the header file Python.h , this file is provide by python2-dev ( -dev mean package for doing development with ) .

With this https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/contents you can search all packages that have Python.h

I was able to run pip install pygpgme by adding these 3 packages :

• python2-dev
• gpgme-dev
• libc-dev

And the Dockerfile will be :

FROM alpine:latest

RUN apk update && apk upgrade
RUN apk add --no-cache bash\
                       python \
                       pkgconfig \
                       git \
                       gcc \
                       openldap \
                       libcurl \
                       python2-dev \
                       gpgme-dev \
                       libc-dev \
    && rm -rf /var/cache/apk/*
RUN wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py && python get-pip.py
RUN pip install setuptools==30.1.0

Gdal installation in Alpine compilation failure - error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

It seems there's a GDAL version conflict:

• pip install gdal pulls the sources tarball for GDAL 3.0.0 and attempts to build it from source;
• The 2.4.0-r1 gdal-dev package is being installed, which is indeed the latest available in Alpine repositories;
• GDAL 3.0.0 won't build against the 2.4.0-r1 gdal-dev headers.

As a workaround, installing the GDAL module of the matching version, 2.4.0, may be successful:

pip install 'gdal==2.4.0'

installing a GCC compiler onto a Docker Container

In your Dockerfile:

FROM ubuntu
# ...
ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND noninteractive
RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get -y install gcc mono-mcs && \
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
