This happened when upgrading from Fedora 37 to 39 just now. I have to use double escape chars to make it work.

For example
dsize = re.sub(" \[.*\.*$", "", dsize)
fixed with
dsize = re.sub(" \\[.*\\.*$", "", dsize)

@Turranius if you are able, please try #147 , especially if you have more hw varieties than I do.

A fixed version of the megaclisas-status script using raw strings is here: https://pastebin.com/MvkvTVmQ (verify against a diff tool prior to using, but it's working well for me under Debian Trixie).
