Cannot start calico-controller on AWS EKS

CNI-genie installed from following spec: kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cni-genie/CNI-Genie/master/conf/1.8/genie-plugin.yaml

I instlled calico afterwards:https://docs.projectcalico.org/v3.7/getting-started/kubernetes/installation/calico#installing-with-the-kubernetes-api-datastore50-nodes-or-less using the < 50 ndoes spec.

calico-controller wont start up:

Looks like cni-genie seeks for weave-net binary, but the node does not have one:
