I tried this recently, and the issue of rpcgen is real, and is not straight-forward is what I felt. Would like to pick this up after glusterfs-6.0 release.
rpcgen is in its own separate package. `apk update && apk add rpcgen` (Alpine 3.9.2)
(Not unlike Fedora28+ and RHEL8 where rpcgen has been removed from glibc. I expect other Linux distributions to eventually follow suit and remove rpcgen from their glibc.)
But alpine ships rpcgen-2.3.2 (versus Fedora's 1.4.x and rhel8's 1.3.1) and it doesn't like the "hyper" data type used in glusterfs4-xdr.x (and presumably in changelog-xdr.x but I didn't get that far.)
According to the Fedora rpm .spec Source:, Fedora's rpcgen comes from https://github.com/thkukuk/rpcsvc-proto/
`apk info rpcgen` says it comes from http://linux-nfs.org, I guess from http://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=steved/nfs-utils.git;a=tree;f=tools/rpcgen;h=64ebfa4a7ddd0cf1b4b363f27aba426d571c422e;hb=HEAD
Both appear to be originally derived from BSD's rpcgen. It'd be nice if the Linux community could settle on a single version of rpcgen.
Maybe someone out in the community that has a vested interest in Alpine Linux would like to dig into it further!
