devkitARM release 56 is now available via pacman. Use sudo (dkp-)pacman -Syu to update or sudo (dkp-)pacman -S devkitARM to install.

devkitARM release 56
  • update binutils to 2.36.1
  • update gcc to 11.1.0
  • update newlib to 4.1.0
  • Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.
Full details of gcc 11 changes can be found at https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-11/

Of particular note is the stringop-overflow/stringop-overread/array-bounds warnings that come from writing directly to literal connstants cast as pointers. See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99578 for example. These warnings are harmless and can be safely ignored. Upstream gcc hopes to address this issue in the near future.

devkitARM-gdb is now updated with the latest gdb 10.2 and the windows binaries are now no longer dependent on DLLs outside stock windows DLLs. As above use sudo (dkp-)pacman -Syu to update or sudo (dkp-)pacman -S devkitARM-gdb to install.

$ sudo dkp-pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
dkp-libs is up to date
error: failed retrieving file 'dkp-linux.db' from downloads.devkitpro.org : The requested URL returned error: 404
error: failed to update dkp-linux (unexpected error)
error: failed to synchronize all databases

This is a recent thing, as I must have updated just a week or so ago. Happens on more than one system, so it can't be a local problem.

The location of the linux repositories was rearranged last year when I brought up aarch64 binaries and the old files were removed recently with some server housekeeping. If you're using dkp-pacman then update with the latest pacman binaries from https://github.com/devkitPro/pacman/releases/latest. If you modified an existing pacman then use the updated URLs from wiki/devkitPro_pacman#Customising_Exist ... an_Install
