"The pyelftools library provided has no write support"

Hi
Having installed the pyelftools library via "pip install pyelftools" i get the error below when running a comand.

"This tool requires version of pyelftools with ELF write support.
Get it from https://github.com/mefistotelis/pyelftools.git"

I then downloaded the master-zip file and re installed via "setup.py install" but get the same error

That's more of a general Python problem - how does one install a fork of a module on top of its original? Try uninstalling pyelftools altogether, and then installing the writing fork.

if you're trying to use dji-firmware-tools, the scripts there does:

sys.path.insert(0, '../pyelftools')

at start. In other words, put pyelftools folder in the same place where dji-firmware-tools folder is, and it will work. no need to install it (though if installed properly, it will also work).
