core: SwitchBot integration doesn't work anymore in 24.01

The problem

It seems like I’m the only one running into this problem because I don’t see or hear anyone else complaining. But when upgrading to release 2024.1.0 (or 2024.1.2), the SwitchBot integration no longer works. For all devices, “Setup failed” applies. I don’t see what I can do myself to adjust it especially since on my other Home Assistant application running on a virtual machine it does work just fine. There, the SwitchBot integration works as before on 2024.

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

core-2024.1.2

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

core-2023.12.4

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant OS

@Kouwe-sudo Follow these steps to remove the old outdated pySwitchbot dependency.

Navigate to the Add-on “Custom deps deployment”. Go to the “Configuration” tab, and delete/remove any options that are related to pyswitchbot, then click Save.
Now go back to the “Info” tab and “Start” the Add-on. In the “Logs” tab you’ll see that old dependencies were removed.
Restart Home Assistant.

If the above does not work, try deleting the Add-on, restart HA, install Add-on, make sure configuration is blank, and start Add-on again, reboot HA.

I just went through these steps and was able to get my curtains and switches working again. Hope that helps.
