Installing php extensions on Dockerfile

I am trying to create my php docker image for my applications, but when I am starting building it, it fails on installing some extensions by showing this error

The same error is thrown for extensions: zip that I’ve also tried, freetype and libfreetype6-dev. How can I solve these errors? Does it required another extension installed first before these?

For ref this is my dockerfile

FROM php:8.1-fpm-alpine

# Install native PHP extensions
RUN apk update && apk add --no-cache --update linux-headers ${PHPIZE_DEPS} 
    && docker-php-ext-install 
    exif 
    mysqli 
    pdo 
    pdo_mysql 
    libzip 
    freetype
    libfreetype6-dev 
    libjpeg62-turbo-dev 
    libpng-dev 
    && docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-freetype --with-jpeg 
    && docker-php-ext-install -j$(nproc) gd 
    && docker-php-ext-install opcache

    Please try the below solution it might help you. Maybe "freetype" required a "GD" library. So we modified the little bit docker file which is below.

    I am referring to this link : Trying to add freetype to php-gd in Docker official image

    FROM php:8.1-fpm-alpine

# Install native PHP extensions
RUN apk update && apk add --no-cache --update linux-headers ${PHPIZE_DEPS} 
    && apk add --no-cache libzip-dev freetype-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev libpng-dev 
    && docker-php-ext-install 
    exif 
    mysqli 
    pdo 
    pdo_mysql 
    libzip 
    freetype 
    && docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-freetype --with-jpeg 
    && docker-php-ext-install -j$(nproc) gd 
    && docker-php-ext-install opcache

    Hope this will help to you.

    There are 2 issues with your solution:

    1. library names, seems they should be libzip-dev, freetype-dev, libjpeg-turbo-dev, libpng-dev
    2. these libs must be installed into the image itself, not as PHP extensions only.

    So, the final Dockerfile that was built successfully is:

    FROM php:8.1-fpm-alpine

# Install native PHP extensions
RUN apk update 
    && apk add --no-cache --update linux-headers ${PHPIZE_DEPS} 
    && apk add libzip-dev 
       freetype-dev 
       libjpeg-turbo-dev 
       libpng-dev 
    && docker-php-ext-install 
       exif 
       mysqli 
       pdo 
       pdo_mysql 
    && docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-freetype --with-jpeg 
    && docker-php-ext-install -j$(nproc) gd 
    && docker-php-ext-install opcache
