1. Go to the pmbootstrap packages dir and start a web server:

$ cd ~/.local/var/pmbootstrap/packages
$ python3 -m http.server

2. Add your own repository on top of your /etc/apk/repositories file on the phone (remember to adjust the IP):

# Add your host machine address
http://172.16.42.2:8000
    
https://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main
https://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community
https://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing

3. Upgrade the package you have built with apk upgrade [package name]

If you get UNTRUSTED signature then try this apk upgrade --allow-untrusted.
