You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Why can't we run without aws_inventory.py UI??? :(

See #14. There is a fork addressing your issue, but the pull request hasn't come in yet.

Hi there. I know it's been a while, but I've just popped in and created the develop branch. It's shifted to Python 3, which I think packs in TKinter by default. Please feel free to pull that down and give it a shot. If it doesn't work, I might just rip out TKinter and just rely on the new CMD display I added.

In develop branch . It still shows ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tkinter' ,
Even though I install manually , then also it shows error @ncc-erik-steringer .
I am using python3.
Can we run it without TKinter. As I dont have UI in Ubuntu virtual machine .

[ncc-erik-steringer]

Good to know, @nirupbbnk . Just as a quickfix for your usecase, you'll probably need to install TKinter on your machine (even though you're not using the GUI) and run as normal. Additionally, the produced file is meant to be opened via a web browser, so please be aware of that potential limitation.

In the long term, I'm probably gonna start out by making aws-inventory work primarily from the command line and remove the TKinter requirement. Then, down the line, I might be able to add an extra with the name [gui] as described in https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0508/#extras .
