Descrizione

Hi,

The current GraalVM CE image is a whooping 1.56GB. I believe it a bit too much to be really used in everyday's life. I believe it could be slimmed down dramatically by FROM'ing from an Alpine Linux instead of Oracle Linux, without losing any feature.

Since this is the community edition, I think there's no licensing issue doing that. Please let me know if that should be the case.

Direzione di ricerca
Examine the GraalVM CE Dockerfile in the oracle/docker images repository. Identify the current base image (likely Oracle Linux) and assess compatibility with Alpine Linux, noting that GraalVM CE relies on glibc. Search the repository for any existing builds or discussions about Alpine support. Check the issue comments (6 total) for any prior attempts or constraints. Coordinate with the assignee (if still active) before making changes. The task involves modifying the FROM statement, installing necessary dependencies, and ensuring the container functions correctly after the change.
