tags 1064307 patch thanks Hi,
for $REASONS I need to use awscli on Ubuntu, but the package was removed from Ubuntu Noble (supposedly due to this bug). Here is how I managed to get things to work on Noble. The problem that is reported in this bug comes from an old version of "six" that is bundled in "botocore" which is bundled in "awscli". To fix this, I simple updated (= overwrote) botocore's six.py with a newer version from git: wget https://github.com/benjaminp/six/raw/c1b416f24de52ebd8eaed3e379ab85ec9c3e935b/six.py -O /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/awscli/botocore/vendored/six.py Then, I ran into a problem with urllib3 (which might or might not be unrelated to this bug - sorry). Newer versions no longer provide urllib3.util.ssl_.DEFAULT_CIPHERS (and the "_" in "ssl_" makes me believe that this module is not considered to be public API). This problem is also already fixed in newer botocore versions. You need the following two patches. https://github.com/boto/botocore/commit/0a6d8e3c6325da395a04227599cfa292190d6841.patch https://github.com/boto/botocore/commit/7b4c26e721936b185681cb10010ded4026295bd4.patch The resulting awscli seems to work fine for me on Ubuntu Noble, but so far I only tested it lightly. Cheers, Uli
