I use a python3 variant/evolution of the example-advertisement and example-gatt-server to make my Linux SBC a BLE peripheral. Upgrading my bluez libraries from 5.40 to 5.41, I’m suddenly getting an error that I wasn’t seeing before:

I notice that the PATH_BASE value is showing up in there. Does this PATH_BASE matter more than it used to (it was basically arbitrary before)? If so, what do I need to change to make it work again?
Argh. Ignore this.
I build debian packages with the latest and install those. The default bluetooth.service has to be tweaked to include the ‘-E’ option.
Did I see that 5.42 may see the -Experimental interface turned on by default? That would be cool… since 42 IS the answer.--
