Hi,

This issue is found in the TeXLive installer, which uses config.guess to 
determine the os type. The maintainer asks me to report the issue here. More 
info can be found at 
https://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2020-November/046308.html

Due to a recent change 
(https://github.com/TeX-Live/installer/commit/ff98be775bf48aa576cbc25aa337dd5626af6550),
 the config.guess will incorrectly report `x86_64-pc-linux-gnu` instead of 
`x86_64-pc-linux-musl` for alpine docker image.

To fix the problem, may I suggest to keep the original detection script using 
ldd. The reason is that the compiler is not installed in a fresh alpine docker 
image. Whereas, the ldd is available by default. Therefore, I think using ldd 
to detect musl libc is much reliable.

Best Regards,

Cheng
