So I am running into an error with the latest docker build from alpine. alpine:3.14.0 was released about a day ago and was trying to install libressl and libressl-dev and both seem to fail with the error below. My work around at the moment was to build using the alpine:3.12.0 as 3.12.0 seems to not have libretls installed. Although I would like to know how to fix this. I tried to remove libretls but that didn't work (error also below). Thanks

To run the Alpine Image Docker Container, you can use the Docker run command. Once the Image is loaded, it opens up the shell for you automatically.
The Alpine DOI is a building block for Alpine Linux Docker containers. It's an executable software package that tells Docker and your application how to behave. The image includes source code, libraries, tools, and other core dependencies that your application needs.
Alpine is a suitable Linux distribution for production because it only has the bare necessities that your application needs to run. In this tutorial, you'll optimize Docker images in a few simple steps, making them smaller, faster, and better suited for production.
You should be able to run the command alpine -v or alpine -version ... you can also start Alpine and press ? on the main menu to open the main Help page, which will also tell you the version.
this is the upstream issue. Downgrading to alpine 3.13 works for now until the issue is fixed. Normally docker images support fixed alpine versions (thanks to MrGlass comment). For example
python:3-alpine -> python:3-alpine3.13
php:7.4-fpm-alpine -> php:7.4-fpm-alpine3.13
