[sgleske-ias]

What package is missing from Amazon Linux 2023? Please describe and include package name.

Serverless Application Model is missing from AL2023 https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/install-sam-cli.html

Is this an update to existing package or new package request?

New package request.

Is this package available in Amazon Linux 2? If it is available via external sources such as EPEL, please specify.

Not as far as I know.

Any additional information you'd like to include. (use-cases, etc)

I ran dnf makecache and dnf search on Docker image amazonlinux:2023 and couldn't find any references to it. Today, we work around it with a Python 3.11 virtual environment. For example,

python3.11 -m venv /tmp/venv
source /tmp/venv/bin/activate

if ! type -P sam; then
    pip install aws-sam-cli
fi

sam --version
