Although I do like the rest of your proposal (using Samu instead of
Ninja for building packages on Alpine) I oppose dropping the ninja
package. As you've mentioned Samu isn't bug compatible with Ninja, so
users may very well want to keep using ninja (if only to use what a
project's upstream uses for bug reports etc.).
