Given the amount of work that requires to be done, I suggest you use a different base image, e.g. python:3.9 or that you install the alpine package py3-psycopg2 (which is on v 2.8.6 at the time of writing).

Anyway I tried it on my machine and in the error it's also written Error: pg_config executable not found.

The pg_config is part of the postgres_dev package and needs to be installed before installing the psycopg2-binary package.

The psycopg2-binary will also need the gcc to be installed and some other libraries.

In other words, you have to execute the following commands:

apk add postgresql-dev gcc ...
pip install psycopg2-binary==2.8.2

I've abandoned the topic after I had to install a bunch of libraries.
