I'm seeing this as well.

+1, i cannot build my Docker image right now...

I just noticed that it has something to do with (open)ssl. When using the ca-certificates package, be sure to run the "update-ca-certificates" before adding any other packages (in my case, "htop") to the docker image.

I haven't been able to exactly tell why this helps, but after calling "update-ca-certificates" first, all was well. Maybe someone with better knowledge of the alpine ecosystem can shed some light on this?

No, the issue is still there, so my previous comments can be ignored.

One can force alpine to install nodejs from alpine 3.2 with:

apk-install -X http://alpine.gliderlabs.com/alpine/v3.2/main 'nodejs<0.13'

This should be fixed now upstream. Referenced at nodejs/node#4221 and http://git.alpinelinux.org/cgit/aports/commit/?id=30beca0f2f1de59e9fc8632d2807da50057217aa. Thanks @fabled.
