sudo pacman -S libsecret
sudo apt-get install gnome-keyring
sudo apt-get install libsecret-1-dev
sudo yum install gnome-keyring
sudo yum install libsecret-devel

Logging into EC2 Instances via AWS SSM with Leapp

In order to use AWS SSM on your System through Leapp, you must be able to execute this command on your own at least once, when the correct credentials are active.

aws ssm start-session --region <region> --target <instanceId>

If, for any reason, this command fails, please verify that you have Python 3.x installed:
