fyi:
there was just a new release of apko v0.6 see https://github.com/chainguard-dev/apko/tags

in general, since apko and melange are busy projects with lots of changes but with lazy release process,
one may think of working directly with latest code from main branch...

@hpvd Thank you~ I'll experiment with the new release~

fyi:
there is a good chance for a new release of melange at the end of december

@hpvd I'm currently wrapping up the distroless process with Java runtime(which can be done using google/Distroless), for python runtime we will use melange + apko, and since Pulsar client now has a alpine release, I'll try if we can use apko only for python runtime
