Hi @oalbrigt, thanks for opening this and providing the proposed change. The AWS CLI V2 has already removed RSA as a dependency and uses cryptography. The V1 client cannot rely on this as we cannot use packages with C extensions. Using the V2 client should give you this functionality.

See the following commits:

Great. When will v2 be available via pip?

Hi @oalbrigt, we are not planning to provide releases of the v2 client through PyPI. However, a source distribution will be provided. You can follow updates on this here for now, pending an announcement of when that would be made available:
