Hi,

is it possible to enable an apk log showing the timestamp when a package
was added or upgraded?

I found this
https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/apk-tools/-/merge_requests/55 but
no apk log file on my install.

# apk list | grep apk-tools | grep installed
apk-tools-2.14.0-r2 x86_64 {apk-tools} (GPL-2.0-only) [installed]

# ls -hl /var/log/apk.log 
ls: /var/log/apk.log: No such file or directory

Regards,
Ralf

that is only in master and was never added to any release (despite what the
conversation in the link would have you think).
