Description of the bug

I was looking at my AD issue here to see if there was any progress as im still getting these in my logs:

https://github.com/AppDaemon/appdaemon/issues/2103

But, I noticed a bigger issue here:

https://github.com/AppDaemon/appdaemon/issues/2190

I guess this is an issue for QolsysGW too?

Expected behavior

No deprecation

DEBUG logs

Normal here

Additional context

Indeed - but so far AppDaemon seems to still be in development, so going to have to monitor what happens next. qolsysgw only depends on AppDaemon for running and connecting to MQTT, which are both features that could be handled separately without a ton of code changes. If it comes to that, I'll work on having a separate container to provide the feature, but hopefully it does not come to that!

I actually realized this only concerns the community add-on and probably wouldn't impact people using Appdaemon as a container (as I do).

I am not sure what it would entail to make qolsysgw available directly as an add-on, and am not sure it will be 100% worth if it people can deploy AppDaemon as a container. Will have to think about it if AppDaemon gets officially deprecated.

Oh, interesting. There are options then, even if mqtt is not built into the code. That's good news!

turns out there is a solution for this issue here:

https://github.com/AppDaemon/appdaemon/issues/2103#issuecomment-2825371290

is this something I could add to my config.yaml?

does not look like this is going to happen anymore :)
