I've packaged up pacoloco for alpine linux. My motivation was to run pacoloco as a caching pacman proxy on a raspberry pi. For the longest time I was using Arch Linux ARM for the purpose (naturally) but this became unworkable eventually for .

Alpine is lightweight, supports aarch64 well and is philosophically not far from Arch. There were already Arch Linux related packages in Alpine (pacman for instance) and vice versa (abuild for instance), so this seems appropriate.

I note the docker image for pacoloco is based on Alpine anyway. Which, speaking of, would it be desirable for that to use the alpine package? Probably not, I smell infinite recursion.
