Facing Touch_Actions issue after V4.0.0 changes

The problem

Facing Issue on ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'appium.webdriver.common.touch_action'. According to the changelog I saw there is suggestion to use w3c actions, sry I just started to join the community and does not know much the ecosystem. Is there and instruction of guide to use it instead of WebDriver? Or it is managed by the contributors community, just wait for the updates?

Details

Currently I am planning to have mobile testing using robot-framework with AppiumLibrary. But face import issue as it mentions can't found the Library even thought has been well configured and reinstall environment carefully. After some investigation, I found it is showing ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'appium.webdriver.common.touch_action'.

Since the installation process is fully pip managed and does not involve much manual input, I found it seems to be cause by the changes.

This is a known issue with robotframework-appiumlibrary. For now you can use the temporary workaround mentioned there.
