Changing the default shell

Download the required package: apk add libuser

If you do not have files: /etc/login.defs /etc/default/useradd

touch /etc/login.defs touch /etc/default/useradd

If you want to change the current user's shell: lchsh

If you want to change a different user's shell: lchsh USERNAME
