I created this for my own use. Installs latest awscli and a few utilities. I also removed the entrypoint since I run multiple commands on it via CICD. supergibbs/aws-cli-container

Hello @bengaywins, thanks for reaching out. We the CLI team are aware and we are making a new image because we will still support amazonlinux:2 until its end of life. We don't have an ETA at this point in time but please refer to an SDK or AWS CLI changelog for updates about this going forward https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aws/aws-cli/v2/CHANGELOG.rst . If you have any questions, please do let me know. Thanks.
