So che Stallman potrebbe farmi le macumbe, ma come si indica una distribuzione con kernel Linux che non utilizza come base principale le GNU core Utilites (e magari nemmeno glibc)?

Non-GNU/Linux GNU-less/Linux?
Distribuzione "esotica"?
Ditemi la vostra definizione.

Tony installs @chimera and a quick look at #musl

Do you use @nodejs on @alpinelinux? While the Node.js project publishes Alpine containers to dockerhub it is currently an "experimental" platform and does not have the same guarantees as other platforms.

We are looking for volunteers to help us bring Alpine to "Tier 2" where it would be built and released through the normal CI process.

If you can help and/or work for a company depending on Node on Alpine/musl then let us know at https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/62764

This exploit write-up features #musl 1.1.24, whose oldmalloc (dlmalloc-like) was used to convert the exploitable bug in the application into an arbitrary write primitive.

musl 1.2.1 or later, with mallocng, would probably have rendered this non-exploitable or would have at least required non-malloc-based approaches to exploiting the initial application bug.

My emulator takes a path to a ROM image on the command line, among other options. I use the musl library's getopt_long function to parse the command in C. It makes me appreciate the libraries that come with newer languages like Python.

Chimera Linux does things differently: the distro is built from scratch, musl instead of glibc, init is dinit, FreeBSD userland, ...

Fresh install on my Thinkpad using OpenZFS and ZFSBootMenu. Curious to explore further. I'm thinking of a setup where Chimera is my desktop and FreeBSD on a home server.
