 ### Installation Issues
 
-`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, Raspberry Pi OS). If wheels are unavailable for your platform, your machine must compile some C libraries.

Precompiled wheels are downloaded when installing on major platforms (Mac, Windows, Linux, Raspberry Pi OS). If wheels are unavailable for your platform, your machine must compile some C libraries. For example:

+mkdir crt-workspace
+cd crt-workspace
+# Clone the repository, making sure to select the version required by the version of the SDK you want to use.

+cd aws-crt-python
+git submodule update --init
+# This step is required so that Pip finds the correct version of the CRT when later installing the SDK.
+sed -i "s/__version__ = '1.0.0.dev0'/__version__ = '0.16.19'/" awscrt/__init__.py
+# Install using Pip
+# Note that in this example, the system's libcrypto is used.
