What package is missing from Amazon Linux 2023? Please describe and include package name.
Package Name: OpenDKIM

Tried: yum --showduplicates list dkim
Error: No matching Packages to list

Is this an update to the existing package or a new package request?
I do not see the package list in available packages nor do I see it in unsupported.

Is this package available in Amazon Linux 2? If it is available via external sources such as EPEL, please specify.
Yes, OpenDKIM is available in AL 2. It is available via EPEL. However, AL2023 does not support EPEL

Tried: yum --showduplicates list epel
Error: No matching Packages to list

Any additional information you'd like to include? (use-cases, etc)

Are there any repositories supported by AL2023 I can use to install OpenDKIM? @stewartsmith

Do you have any plan to include OpenDKIM in Amazon Linux ?

This is under investigation

Is there any update on this, DKIM is pretty important these days.

I was able to build opendkim, from the latest Fedora release, using COPR in my repo here:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/faramirza/al2023/package/opendkim/
You would need to build the following dependencies before you can build opendkim:

firebird
freetds
sqlite2
opendbx

It's been more than a year since the creation of this request. Any update on this?

I also would like to know the status of the "investigation."
Its one thing to decide to force users to switch from cron to systemd timers or to force users to switch from rsyslog to journalctl.
But there is no replacement for opendkim, the package has simply been removed.
Why was this done? When will this oversight be remediated?
Or was this intentional?

It wasn't removed per-se, Amazon Linux never carried it. Keep in mind that EPEL is fundamentally unsupported software.

There are some concerns about the risk and dependencies but it's still in the list of potential adds.

As for "forcing users to switch from cron etc...." this is a rather unfair comment as this is a general trend that has happened progressively accross all Linux distributions over the last decade

ok fair enough, i forgot that was an epel package. The deeper question is what can AL2023 users do if they need to continue to send emails ? I have been sending emails via postfix on amazon for a decade without incident.
For more than one client.
Can Amazon pick up this package or should we try to compile opendkim ? Or should we just keep using AL2 ?

I am trying to get some attention internally on this, but in the meantime, you can use your own build (or the above COPR one) if that works for you.

Starting in February 2024, Google will be updating its guidelines for sending email and recommends setting up SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and ARC.
I strongly feel the need for opendkim.
However, there is also little information on how to make and install from its source code.

Be careful if you plan to use SSSD with OpenDKIM in Amazon Linux 2023. There is some issue using sssd 2.9+ and opendkim : trusteddomainproject/OpenDKIM#198
