aiobotocore no longer have boto3 extra

[eladkal]

We have:

airflow/providers/amazon/pyproject.toml

Lines 92 to 94 in 84f6ee0

	"aiobotocore" = [
	"aiobotocore[boto3]>=2.26.0",
	]

But started to see:
warning: The package aiobotocore==3.3.0 does not have an extra named boto3

relates to aio-libs/aiobotocore#1424

cc @o-nikolas @vincbeck @ferruzzi please advice how you wish to handle the broken extra
Do you perfer to bump min version to 3.3.0 and remove the extra?

Since boto3 is a dependency of the Amazon provider package, we should not need to explicitly mention the extra boto3. Am I wrong? My understanding is, aiobotocore[boto3] means install aiobotocore along the optional dependency boto3. But boto3 is a required dependency of the amazon provider package, so we can just remove the extra here?

Cool so marking it as good first issue

Sounds right to me. Since boto3 is already a required dependency of the Amazon provider, the extra on aiobotocore doesn’t really add anything and just leads to the warning. I’d be in favor of removing the [boto3] extra and, if needed, bumping the minimum version to one that no longer expects it. That should keep things simpler and avoid the confusion going forward.

@vincbeck - wanted to include a note for anyone who might be interested in contributing a fix here. What would be the process for testing this?

[vincbeck]

Good question :| I would say try to run an AWS operator/sensor in deferrable mode. Pick one that is using aibotocore and be sure it is running successfully. I am not an expert in aiobotore so if someone has better idea, please share it

Hi, I'd like to take this on. Will submit a PR removing the [boto3] extra from the aiobotocore dependency in pyproject.toml as discussed above. Will also test with a deferrable AWS operator to verify.
