After upgrading Splunk to v8.1.5 and updating the AWS App & Addon we are running in a version conflict with the Python for Scientific Computing App 3.0.0 for MLTK & 1.2 which should run on the same SH. MLTK 5 requires PSC 3 and the AWS App requires PSC 1.2 as documented in https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AWS/6.0.3/Installation/Hardwareandsoftwarerequirements

MLTK

As in the documentation URL above described I renamed the PSC folder and created the app.conf:

/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64_awsapp/local/app.conf
[package]
id = Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64_awsapp

Now it works for AWS but the MLTK cannot find the installed PSC 3.

If I’m changing the directory to ZZZ_Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64_awsapp, the MLTK will work, but the AWS cannot find the PSC now.

/opt/splunk/etc/apps/ZZZ_Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64_awsapp/local/app.conf
[package]
id = ZZZ_Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64_awsapp

Is there a way to get this to work or is that an unsupported constellation?
