          For IRB at least I found that



          apk add irb-pry 


          was the answer



          then



          irb
          irb(main):00:0>


          works



          I would really rather have an answer that shows me how to get PRY working. It isn't listed at https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/edge/main/x86/ruby (on the right) so would i need to build from source and how to do that? I imagine some more dependencies might be also be needed for that.
