can't run docker-compose because libz.so.1 doesn't like something about /tmp

[airtonix]

❯ docker-compose
docker-compose: error while loading shared libraries: libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Attempts to fix it

1. do something about /tmp
outcome: doesn't work

❯ sudo mount /tmp -o remount,exec
[sudo] password for zenobius:
mount: /tmp: mount point not mounted or bad option.

2. try telling docker-compose to use another tmp directory:
   outcome: doesn't work

3. completely remove docker and the alpine-pkg-glibc and just use standard alpine docker packages:
   outcome: works

❯ sudo apk del docker
❯ sudo apk del glibc
❯ sudo rm /usr/local/bin/docker-compose*
❯ sudo apk add --update docker
...
❯ docker system info | grep "Operating System"
WARNING: bridge-nf-call-iptables is disabled
WARNING: bridge-nf-call-ip6tables is disabled

❯ sudo pip3 install docker-compose --force-reinstall

Installed docker via this process:

• https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc

and:

$ sudo apk add --update docker

Investigation efforts:

• docker-compose fails when /tmp is in noexec mode docker/compose#6990
• failed to map segment from shared object error on start docker/compose#1339 (comment)

❯ cat /etc/os-release

Solved it:

• don't use non standard glibc install
• use docker pkg in community repo.
• pip3 install docker-compose
