[Request]: Alpine GUI apps #57

@ghost

Description

Tell us the problem or your need

It's actually very simple to get GUI apps to work on Alpine. Simply run xhost +local:; xhost, and start a GUI app.

Note: this was tested with Fedora rawhide.

Describe the solution you'd like

To fix this, it should run the command when you open a Alpine chroot.

Other solutions?

It could also have an option to rerun xhost +local:, in case something breaks.
