Building aws-crt on NetBSD

[darko-mesaros]

Hello, I am trying to get AWS CLI v2 running on NetBSD, however one of the issues I encounter is the inability to compile aws-crt. When running python setup.py install (python 3.9.12) the process fails during aws-crt compilation, with the following error:

[ 66%] Building C object crypto/CMakeFiles/crypto.dir/thread_pthread.c.o

I am running the following version of NetBSD:

(.venv) [vagrant@netbsd9 ~]$ uname -a
NetBSD netbsd9.localdomain 9.2 NetBSD 9.2 (GENERIC) #0: Wed May 12 13:15:55 UTC 2021  mkrepro@mkrepro.NetBSD.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64

And this is the version of cmake I have:

(.venv) [vagrant@netbsd9 aws-cli]$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.22.3

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).

Is there a specific dependency that I am missing, or what version of cmake3 is required?
Thank you,
Darko

We currently don't support NetBSD. Please 👍 the above feature request is you would like support added.

You could try skipping the compilation of aws-lc and instead link it with OpenSSL as described here.
