Incomplete Alpine Linux wheel support (musllinux) on PyPI #275

Hi,

It seems like the release process for the packages is lagging behind in terms of Python version compatibility for Alpine Linux. You can easily see this by checking the list of released files on PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/pyats/25.11/#files

While manylinux2014_x86_64 and manylinux_aarch64 have builds for CPython 3.10–3.14 for both x86_64 and aarch64 respectively, the available builds for Alpine Linux are lacking:

  • There is no aarch64 support, meaning musllinux_1_2_aarch64 is completely missing
  • The x86_64 support via musllinux_1_2_x86_64 only has a single package for CPython 3.10

This means it is currently impossible to use PyATS or any of its descendant libraries on Alpine Linux running on aarch64. Additionally, even on x86_64, only Python 3.10 is supported. This was slightly confusing to me, as the documentation clearly states Alpine Linux support.

Could you please ensure that additional wheels are made available, so that CPython 3.13 is supported as well, and that aarch64 is added as a supported architecture?

Thanks a lot in advance for your consideration!
