Hi, I was able to install bpftrace when using AMI al2022-ami-2022.0.20220928.0-kernel-5.15-x86_64. Thanks!

Unfortunately, it seems pcp is no longer available. I can open a separate issue for that.

What pcp modules/packages are you looking for? Some of the modules have a bunch of dependencies that we'd want to be careful about bringing in.
