Installing pure-maps from repository - sokolgeo - 11-12-2020

Hi!

I want to install package pure-maps, which some sources say should be updated in alpine repository.

Still "sudo apk add pure-maps" gives "not found" error.

Should I add some additional repository on PostmarketOS?

I would rather avoid installing pure-maps via flatpak.
"flatpak install flathub io.github.rinigus.PureMaps" gives "flathub not found" error.

Please, how could one install pure-maps on PostmarketOS?
Preferrably in "apk add" way, or at least via flatpak?

Currently pure-maps is only packaged on the edge channel.

If you want to switch to edge, change 20.05 to edge in /etc/apk/repositories


If you don't want to switch to edge:
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install flathub io.github.rinigus.PureMaps

I found this, it is somewhat documented in the wiki though it is helpful to know that the command after running sudo setup-apkrepos then hititng e (edit) uses VI commands to remove the comment-out ###s leave edit and save.
https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Edge
it would be great to have a full how-to for APK and the package manager.
It would also be nice way to toggle to GUI-browse the alpine packages even those not pinephone specific.
(edit) and for what it is worth now the package manager is hosed, still cant install Pure-maps or do upgrades with all repos uncommented
