Same Error here on Kali Linux !!

EDIT :
You might need to uninstall (pip uninstall atomic-operator) the package and install it again

Issue exists on MacOS 12.6 on both regular user and sudo. Will try reinstalling.

Edit: uninstalling and reinstalling via pip worked.

Hello, I appear to have the same issue on an M1 Mac OS Version 12.6.1. I attempted to follow the instructions here but came up with issues from the python setup.py install command. There where packages I needed to install manually, and I had to run it with sudo. Unfortunately, I did not think to save the error logs from that step. I was finally able to successfully complete the installation, but when I run atomic-operator --help I see the following error:
# atomic-operator --help Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/atomic-operator", line 33, in <module> sys.exit(load_entry_point('atomic-operator==0.8.5', 'console_scripts', 'atomic-operator')()) File "/usr/local/bin/atomic-operator", line 25, in importlib_load_entry_point return next(matches).load() File "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Library/Frameworks/Python3.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/importlib/metadata.py", line 77, in load module = import_module(match.group('module')) File "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Library/Frameworks/Python3.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/importlib/__init__.py", line 127, in import_module return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level) File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1030, in _gcd_import File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1007, in _find_and_load File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 972, in _find_and_load_unlocked File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 228, in _call_with_frames_removed File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1030, in _gcd_import File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1007, in _find_and_load File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 986, in _find_and_load_unlocked File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 664, in _load_unlocked File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 627, in _load_backward_compatible File "<frozen zipimport>", line 259, in load_module File "/Library/Python/3.9/site-packages/atomic_operator-0.8.5-py3.9.egg/atomic_operator/__init__.py", line 1, in <module> File "<frozen zipimport>", line 259, in load_module File "/Library/Python/3.9/site-packages/atomic_operator-0.8.5-py3.9.egg/atomic_operator/atomic_operator.py", line 13, in <module> File "<frozen zipimport>", line 259, in load_module File "/Library/Python/3.9/site-packages/atomic_operator-0.8.5-py3.9.egg/atomic_operator/execution/__init__.py", line 1, in <module> File "<frozen zipimport>", line 259, in load_module File "/Library/Python/3.9/site-packages/atomic_operator-0.8.5-py3.9.egg/atomic_operator/execution/awsrunner.py", line 3, in <module> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'atomic_operator.execution.base'

I have tried uninstalling atomic-operator and reinstalling via pip and via the setup.py script without success.

@HackThePlanetKC @fxploit @melidosian @MechiH Hey all - Sorry for the long delay on this but I am looking at this now and this week.

I will need to setup a test environment but can someone verify this is still an issue ?

Also, @fxploit I would not run atomic-operator with sudo and would only install it via -U or user scope if possible. The elevation of an Atomic Test is determined by the ATomic.yaml file and not any parameters or elevation of atomic-operator itself (but thinking about it, it may be necessary on some hosts). I will take a closer look but further feedback would be helpful!
