  ca-certificates \
  tzdata \
  readline \
  gdbm \
  libffi \
  ncurses

Notes

musl DOES NOT support dynamic loading of 3rd-party libraries (i.e., Python binary modules) when the CPython interpreter is built statically.

So we keep the CPython interpreter as dynamic, using the standard build procedure taken from the Docker Hub's Python library.

As Alpine Linux is the only well-known musl-based Linux distribution, we keep our version compatibility of this package based on the musl's ABI compatibility, which is currently 1.2 in Alpine 3.17.
