Just would like to add in that this would be excellent. Alpine in Termux would be incredibly handy.

for the sake of completeness this actually compiles and works from disabled. Its available in my repo.

[scateu]

Is there a tutorial to test the alpine from the disabled-packages directory?

Iv got it on my repo. Updated and fixed a few things.

Thanks for providing alpine!

Would it be possible to ./configure it with "--with-passfile=.pine-passfile" so that it saves passwords? (otherwise it's a bit of pain on mobile..)

Thanks a lot.

@its-pointless Would you like to submit a PR updating and enabling alpine?

@scateu Alpine is available by pkg install alpine
