ImportError: version 'GLIBC_2.33' not found when using awscrt

[jstaffel]

When trying to import awscrt in a python file, i get the error:
ImportError: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by /home/pi/myproject/.venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/_awscrt.abi3.so).

The system and tools I am using:

• Raspberry Pi 4
• Debian Bullseye
• Python 3.11.3
• awscrt 0.19.1
• awsiotsdk 1.19.0

awscrt works with Python 3.9. Due to some other project dependencies I need to use Python 3.11.
It seems like my issue is similar to this issue. Does anyone have encountered the same problem or has a solution? Thanks!

Are you running Raspberry Pi OS, or actual Debian?
awscrt has C extensions that need to be compiled for specific platforms.

If you're running an aarch64 (aka armv8) installation of actual Debian, you should be able to use the aarch64 wheels from PyPI.

If you're running on Raspberry Pi OS, the wheels from https://www.piwheels.org will only work with the official version of python supported on that system:

• The wheels for Python 3.11 are specifically for Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm.
• The wheels for Python 3.9 are specifically for Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye.

Taking the wheels meant for "Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm" and running them on "Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye" is not going to work.

If you're in some other weird bucket where (an arm7 installation of actual Debian Bullseye running Python 3.11) you'll need to build your own wheels. Follow the instructions I gave on that other ticket, and if the installation is still failing post logs here

Thank you for your response. Using Bookworm resolved my problem.
