I'm trying to add alpine package tor and getting a following error:

root@linode:~/# docker run -it alpine /bin/sh
/ # apk update
fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.4/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz

OK: 5973 distinct packages available
/ # apk add tor
ERROR: unsatisfiable constraints:

Linux fb9225b194cb 4.7.0-x86_64-linode72 #1 SMP Thu Aug 4 15:15:18 EDT 2016 x86_64 Linux

Please advice.

As you can see at pkgs.alpinelinux.org, tor is not in v3.4 (last stable), just in edge (unstable). It will be in the upcoming release v3.5.

Since we are just migrating from openssl to libressl in edge, I’d be very risky to mix stable and edge now. Therefore I recommend you to build tor package on v3.4 yourself.

Read how to prepare your environment, clone aports repo, replace libressl-dev with openssl-dev in community/tor/APKBUILD and run abuild -r -i tor (in the community/tor directory).
