[FLASH-USERS] Setup error

[Matthew Trantham]

Python 3.9 and 3.10, are not compatible with FLASHX.X.X/bin/setup.py

You could use an older version of Python or replace the offending functions
as I did below:

The sys.getcheckinterval() and sys.setcheckinterval() functions have been
removed from Python. They were deprecated since Python 3.2 (and don't work
after 3.7 or 3.8 at all). Use sys.getswitchinterval()
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.getswitchinterval> and sys.
setswitchinterval()
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.setswitchinterval> instead.

If you run into problems with the setup command in FLASH find and
replace sys.setcheckinterval(10000)
with sys.setswitchinterval(
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.setswitchinterval>10000)
