As noted in ipfs/fs-repo-migrations#111 we very briefly supported building for musl libc alternative to the more common glibc in 2017 and then stopped.

If it's not too painful to support it'd be nice if we could build with support for musl as well as glibc. Note: we need to support building with CGO enabled for things like plugins or OS specific optimizations so just ignoring libc entirely isn't really an option.

It looks like we used to only support x64 linux + musl back in 2017. I suspect that's enough for the most common use case (alpine linux in docker images), but we could potentially build more as well.

@aschmahmann I'm afraid there isn't bandwidth on the GUI team right now to tackle this -- if it's something you or @olizilla might be willing to look into, though, that would be great.

@aschmahmann Alternately -- if you think this is a potential good bounty fit, do you mind writing up bounty specs and we'll get it on the board?

This feature was asked about in the #ipfs chat room today (here). So others may be interested in this as well, is the bounty live?
