@gygitlab We can't remove this directly because we also need the package 'azure-iot-hub' to manage Iot-related resources. If you want to discard, you need to replace the package with another package. Thank you!

Thanks @Fred-sun and fair enough.

Nonetheless you have a problem then as that package hasn't been updated in 2 years and a package it subsequently depends on (azure-uamqp-python) is now deprecated and does not build on Mac ARM devices or Linux ARM devices running on Python 3.12+ - This prevents the entire Ansible collection from being run on these devices. It's likely this blast radius will increase.

The way I see it you have 2 choices - Find someone who can update azure-iot-hub to remove it's dependency on the now deprecated azure-uamqp-python package, which from the looks of things has had no activity in years or remove this hard dependency from the collection and make it optional.

@gygitlab This PR is not compliant, so do you want to re-submit and replace the original dependency package, or close it temporarily and we will replace this package? Thank you!

Closing as requested.

Maybe as temporary measure, in order to allow packaging and installation of this collection on all supported platforms, I suggest making this component optional, basically changing to something like:

azure-iot-hub==2.6.1;platform_machine=="x86_64"

Hi, had the same issue, did a workaround to remove the azure-iot-hub from the requirements.txt and the rest worked fine.

ansible-galaxy collection install azure.azcollection:==2.6.0 --force

# Remove azure-iot-hub line so it removes dependency on uamqp
RUN sed -i '/azure-iot-hub/d' ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/azure/azcollection/requirements.txt

RUN pip install -r ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/azure/azcollection/requirements.txt

I did it in a docker container, some details below

alpine:3.18.2
Python 3.11.8
pip 24.1.2
azure.azcollection 2.6.0
