I am installing ScyllaDB (as described here: https://www.scylladb.com/download/?platform=rhel&version=scylla-5.2#open-source) on RHEL9 box (running on AWS EC2).
Getting this error:

By default, RHEL9 image came with Python 3.x.x, so I manually installed Python 2.7.18 and added it to $PATH. The error still persists.
Just as a side note, I have installed ScyllaDB on multiple RHEL8 boxes and never had this issues. The only other difference I can think of is RHEL8 EC2 instances were r5.4xlarge running x86 architecture, but RHEL9 box is m7g.4xlarge box running ARM architecture (want to try Graviton processors).
