Any fix for this?

Same issue here

If you insert "-Wno-format-truncation" at line 356:

AM_CPPFLAGS = -Wall -Wno-format-truncation -Werror -Wextra -Wreturn-type -fno-strict-aliasing -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGE_FILE $(LIBUSB1_CFLAGS)

It works for me...

Edit the main.cpp line 1491 from static inline uint32_t convertChipType(const char chip) { char buffer[5]; memset(buffer, 0, sizeof(buffer)); to static inline uint32_t convertChipType(const char chip) { char buffer[558]; memset(buffer, 0, sizeof(buffer)); No more error.

I'll leave this open as it's a bug. But for me it's a non-issue by now. That's mainly because i'm not developing for this anymore.

Yeah, it works thank you

Hi there are 2 PRs for this issue: https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkdeveloptool/pull/63 https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkdeveloptool/pull/62

i just wanna fix my orange pi 5 that i foolishly flashed all drives with the bootloader ......is there a prebuilt binary available for linux?

I shouldn't be hard to just fix this in repo?

But there is a reason why SBC's are dying.... It is 2023 and the same issue persists.
