+To build the static binary 64-bit distribution package, run:

 The program will:
-

 1. setup a new docker container with Alpine Linux
 2. install the required alpine packages (the build environment, needed libraries, etc)
 3. download and compile third party apps that are packaged with netdata (`bash`, `curl`, etc)
 4. compile netdata

 Once finished, a file named `netdata-vX.X.X-gGITHASH-x86_64-DATE-TIME.run` will be created in the current directory. This is the netdata binary package that can be run to install netdata on any other computer.
