I can't start d24drv at all. According to their GitHub issues, the config included in the package is faulty when this happens. https://github.com/chrippa/ds4drv/issues/204

Removing the offending lines from the config solves the problem.

Traceback (most recent call last):

@Deaver @mumblyomod Thanks for proposing a fix and verifying it.

@Deaver thanks! Your fix worked for me too!

@fell I was able to fix that error by changing the instances of SafeConfigParser to just ConfigParser in /usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/ds4drv/config.py at lines 72 and 99

@Fell, could you try again? I cannot reproduce the error you got.

This package seems to be broken as of Python 3.12:

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

FYI: Had to comment lines (# before line) 118 and 119 in etc/ds4drv.conf for the program to work. These lines are mapping the same input twice with the ones above it and the config parser errors out.

I don't understand why a fix replacing a package in extra with an aur package which has an unsolved compile problem (see latest comment in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bluez-utils-compat/) can actually be considered a fix...

There is an issue with this tool as it uses 'hcitool', which is deprecated upstream (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth#Installation, see Note).

Fix: Replace bluez-utils with bluez-utils-compat in depends= section
