GET assumes there's a default VPC in AWS

I got the following error while working on GET:

│ Error: No default VPC found in this region.

│   with module.gitlab_ref_arch_aws.aws_default_vpc.default[0],
│   on ../../modules/gitlab_ref_arch_aws/network.tf line 5, in resource "aws_default_vpc" "default":
│    5: resource "aws_default_vpc" "default" {

It seems that the fact that this customer doesn''t have a default VPC surprised GET. I had specified the custom VPC which GET should use, thus following the "existing" network setup, but it seems that GET is still assuming that a default VPC must exist, despite not being necessary. Would it be possible to modify GET to work around that?
