AttributeError: module 'configparser' has no attribute 'SafeConfigParser'. Did you mean: 'RawConfigParser'?

Installed using sudo pip install ds4drv.

Fedora Workstation 39. Python Python 3.12.2.

The solution to this is to navigate to /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/ds4drv/config.pyand modify lines 72 and 99 from SafeConfigParser to ConfigParser

Save and run again.

Also, on Fedora, you may run into an error regarding hcitools. If that's the case, then you need to install bluez-deprecated off the rpm, which includes hcitools.

ds4drv seems to be very old and has not been updated for modern versions of python or bluez, but should still work nonetheless.
