Starting with Alpine Linux version 3.3, there is a new repository called '''community'''. Many packages have been moved from the main repository to community to indicate that they are not guaranteed to be supported beyond six months. If you are using any of these packages, be sure to add the community repository.

Edit the {{Path|/etc/apk/repositories}} file using an editor ({{Pkg|nano}} for instance) and add (or uncomment) a line like:
 
'''http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community'''
 
After adding the community repository, obtain the latest index of available packages:
{{Cmd|apk update}}
 
{{Tip|Adding the <code>-U</code>/<code>--update-cache</code> to another apk command, as in <code>apk add -U ...</code> or <code>apk upgrade -U</code>, has the same effect as running <code>apk update</code> before the other apk command.}}
