research resolving problem when using alpine 3.13

[xquery]

we are pinned at alpine 3.12.5 for release as we encounter some resolving issue with alpine 3.13 ... need to investigate

[J0WI]

Can you share some details or steps to reproduce?

Some pointers to related issues:

• dns issue with docker alpine:3.13 (that does not happen with 3.12) when running on a vagrant image with --natdnshostresolver1 alpinelinux/docker-alpine#149
• alpine:3.13 cannot be used by gitlab-runner (alpine:3.12 can) alpinelinux/docker-alpine#134 (comment)
• nslookup fails in Alpine 3.11.3 gliderlabs/docker-alpine#539 (comment)

I hit this problem yesterday. Setup : Mac (Catalina) with D4M, following instructions here : https://github.com/tbreuss/local-dev, with devbox as the local domain handled by dnsmasq.

xxx$ docker run -it alpine (this is version 3.13.5)
/ # ping my.devbox
ping: bad address 'my.devbox'

xxx$ docker run -it --rm alpine:3.12.5 /bin/sh
/ # ping my.devbox
PING my.devbox (172.16.123.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 172.16.123.1: seq=0 ttl=37 time=0.454 ms
64 bytes from 172.16.123.1: seq=1 ttl=37 time=0.686 ms
