Problems with power light and shutdown

[redbau]

Using a brand new Pi4 (1GB) + Retropie fresh install:

1. When safe shutdown is turned off

• Power button works as it should, on turns on, light stays lit, off turns off, light goes off

2. When safe shutdown is turned on + script is installed

• Power button turns on unit okay
• Power light works for about 5 seconds... then stops working...
• Power light turns off
• Power button no longer does anything

What can I do to debug this more for you all? I'd like to troubleshoot my issue but I'm not sure where to start.

There are at least two issues nowadays when this script is used with Bookworm (or does Retropie not use that?):

1. /boot/config.txt has been moved to /boot/firmware/config.txt nowadays.
2. RPi.GPIO doesn't work correctly no longer, but a drop-in rpi-lgpio replacement has issues too. This script likely needs moving to gpiozero.

I don't use Retropie anymore, but those are the issues I encountered on the latest Raspberry Pi OS.
