Accidental edge repository deletion

October 25, 20241 min. read

Earlier today, the entirety of the Alpine Linux edge binary package repository was accidentally erased, with the exception of riscv64 packages.

According to the Alpine Linux team, this was due to incorrect invocation of rsync.

As of writing this, the packages have been restored. Run apk update as root on your device to synchronize packages; it should work now.
