The following are the limitations of Alpine in Artifactory:

  • Supported clients: Artifactory supports Alpine Linux version 3.9.6 and above and the apk-tools client version 2.10.3 and above.

  • APKINDEX signing: Artifactory signs the repository metadata file, or the index, not individual Alpine packages themselves.

  • Path structure requirements: All Alpine packages must be deployed to a specific path structure, <BRANCH>/<REPOSITORY>/<ARCHITECTURE>, in order to be correctly indexed by Artifactory. For more information, see Alpine Linux Repository Structure.
