Arch Linux User Repository

ST has modified their website, and now you must add the cookie in the request header to download files. Until this issue is resolved, please download the en.stm32cubeprg-lin-v${VERSION}.zip via the browser and then use makepkg to manually package it.

ST have changed the naming scheme of their installation files. Downloading SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer_linux_64.zip and renaming it to en.stm32cubeprg-lin-v2-22-0.zip before running makepkg works.

I had some issues where the STM32CubeProgrammer script in /opt/stm32cubeprog/bin didn't follow the symlink correctly when executed from the symlink in /usr/bin. I solved it with the following patch:

I just installed the package and got following issues: - got problems during installation. I copied the downloaded zip into the cache directory and installation worked. - after that, I couldn't start the application from menu and by CL - I installed the original from zip over the existing application and I could start it

@mrechte I had the same problem and this worked for me: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78850472/stm32cubeprogrammer-flash-loader-cannot-be-loaded

Hello. When I connect to the device, I get the message "stm32cubeprog error: flash loader cannot be loaded FlashLoaderPath = /opt/stm32cubprog/bin/FlashLoader/Ox". This same program used to work a few months ago (2.18 and 2.20 gives the same error). To use this prog, I had to switch to Xorg. Now there is no more choice. Would this problem be linked to Wayland ?

@fermentedfly see the pinned comment from Dec 2024 ;).

For anyone using an AUR helper (e.g., yay (I know they're not officially supported)) you can follow the upstream URL to download and move the downloaded file to ~/.cache/yay/stm32cubeprog/en.stm32cubeprg-lin-v2-20-0.zip and rerun the install. Change version/filename as necessary per the PKGBUILD.

makepkg fails due to bad shasum for en.stm32cubeprg-lin-v2-20-0.zip.

It seems the download from st.com results in a HTTP 401 error.

Manually downloading "stm32cubeprg-lin-v2-20-0.zip" from ST (login required) and placing it in the build folder as "en.stm32cubeprg-lin-v2-20-0.zip" mitigates the problem.
