After some digging on Nix build system, I found that if
autoconfis locked on2.71(pkgs.autoconf271) , everything works fine.Alpine 3.20 updated
autoconffrom2.71to2.72, think this might be the reason.swantzter commentedon Aug 8, 2024
I've gotten to a working spot by downgrading to alpine 3.19 to get a) autoconf 2.17, b) pthon 3.11 (node-gyp 9 is broken for python >= 3.12)
This mess seems to work at least

I gave up on alpine and managed to get debian 12 to work, though it too had the same error initially.
