Can’t install bash in multiarch build on Alpine

I am trying to build image for linux/arm64/v8 on linux/amd64 Gitlab runner. I run it with this command:

docker buildx create --use
docker buildx build --platform linux/arm64/v8 -f Dockerfile.dev -t registry.gitlab.com/xxx:yyy --build-arg ENV=dev --build-arg COMPOSER_AUTH_FILE=./auth.json .

My Dockerfile is fairly simple:

FROM alpine:latest

RUN apk update && 
    apk add --no-cache composer git bash openssh-client patch && 
    apk add --no-cache libzip-dev libpng-dev libxslt-dev curl-dev libxml2-dev icu-dev oniguruma-dev freetype-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev

But it fails with:

#6 [2/2] RUN apk update &&     apk add --no-cache composer git bash openssh-client patch &&     apk add --no-cache libzip-dev libpng-dev libxslt-dev curl-dev libxml2-dev icu-dev oniguruma-dev freetype-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev

It’s Gitlab runner version 13.4.1 and Docker executor docker:stable. What can I do about this issue?

Answer

There were three problems with my approach:

  1. I needed to install buildx extension
- mkdir -p ~/.docker/cli-plugins
- wget -qO ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-buildx `wget -O - https://api.github.com/repos/docker/buildx/releases/latest | grep browser_download_url | grep linux-amd64 | cut -d '"' -f 4`
- chmod a+x ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-buildx
  1. I had to install emulators through qemu
- docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes
  1. I was hosting the Gitlab runner on a CentOS 7 with Kernel 3.13, which is not supported by qemu. After update to Ubuntu 20.04 with Kernel version 5.4 it worked just fine.
