It's not a moving target. It's been "alpine" since 2007, when UWash
rewrote it to eliminate use of portions of the code that were
copyrighted so that it could be released under a public license. Eduardo
had been part of that team. UWash stopped maintaining alpine a few
months after releasing the rewrite.
Most of us are on Eduardo's fork of alpine; the two earlier forks are abandoned projects. His version numbering doesn't overlap version
numbering used with the two earlier forks.
Eduardo generously gives his time maintaining alpine. We all thank him
for it.
If you had a specific question to ask, you'd receive an answer.
I am planning to ask a few questions. But in the meantime:
$ apt-cache show alpine|grep Homepage
Homepage: http://alpine.x10host.com/alpine/
< Site not found >
Is this a Debian problem?

The package maintainer isn't using the current location of the
repository. Please let the package maintainer know that he needs to
correct this. Eduardo does not create the packages.
Eduardo changed the location of the repository several years ago.

As others pointed out, Eduardo's Patches for Alpine site should also be referenced. https://alpineapp.email/alpine/
Eduardo had also changed the location of this site.
