Recent update of my system completely borked EB CLI
on my machine.
I tried installing it with pip install awsebcli --upgrade --user and it failed.
The error was the following.
Collecting PyYAML<6.1,>=5.3.1 (from awsebcli)
Using cached PyYAML-5.4.1.tar.gz (175 kB)
Installing build dependencies ... done
Getting requirements to build wheel ... error
error: subprocess-exited-with-error

To fix this issue with PyYAML you must install PyYAML separately.
Do the following and try installing eb again after.
echo 'Cython < 3.0' > /tmp/constraint.txt
PIP_CONSTRAINT=/tmp/constraint.txt pip install 'PyYAML==5.4.1'
