Relevant log output

[9/25/2025, 8:07:51 AM] The plugin "homebridge-smarthq" defines 'homebridge' and/or 'hap-nodejs' in their 'dependencies' section, meaning they carry an additional copy of homebridge and hap-nodejs. This not only wastes disk space, but also can cause major incompatibility issues and thus is considered bad practice. Please inform the developer to update their plugin!
