since the alpine issues have been fixed now - build receipe/instructions
for static rsync below.
ok - why using alpine for the build ?
alpine uses musl libc instead of glibc, and musl is designed to support
static linking cleanly and reliably — unlike glibc, which can make
static linking difficult or unpredictable.
because of that, you can build truly portable, self‑contained binaries
that don’t depend on specific shared libraries being present on the host*.*
you may have seen error messages like this for example when statically
linking with glibc based distro: "warning: Using 'getpwnam_r' in
statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries
from the glibc version used for linking"

feedback welcome
