## Installation Issues
39+
40+
`awsiotsdk` depends on [awscrt](https://github.com/awslabs/aws-crt-python), which makes use of C extensions. Precompiled wheels are downloaded when installing on major platforms (Mac, Windows, Linux, Raspbian (python3 only)). If wheels are unavailable for your platform (ex: Raspbian with python2.7), your machine must compile some C libraries. If you encounter issues, install the following and try again:
41+
42+
```
43+
sudo apt-get update
44+
sudo apt-get install cmake
45+
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
46+
```
