Ubuntu: 22.04.1, MacBook Pro 2011 17", Python 3.10.6;

In bash when running install.sh it generates an error. When trying to install PyBluez it cannot do that either.

Also running python program does not work:

I had similar issues on Debian. I was able to work around these by installing python3-bluez using apt. IMHO, this is preferable since relying on PIP is less reliable. You can find my changes in the only PR if you need more details.

@MaxG87 that resolved the issue i installed:

  1. sudo apt install python3-bluez
  2. sudo apt install bluetooth
  3. sudo apt install libbluetooth-dev
