The problem with Docker and Alpine's package pinning | by Stefan Schindler | Medium - 0 views

  • What’s one of the biggest benefits of Docker? Clearly reproducibility: It doesn’t matter where you run your images, or when you run them: The result will always be the same.
  • For example, in Alpine 3.5, the package Node.js might be 2.0, and in Alpine 3.4 it’s 1.9. By pinning down the repository to Alpine 3.4, you will alwaysget Node.js 1.9, because Alpine 3.4 is an old version and not updated anymore.
  • Unfortunately Alpine Linux does not keep old packages.
