I'm using 1.8.5 IDE and have the SD library 1.2.1 installed but it always says there is an update for it. Is this a known bug that I just can't seem to google for? I'd hate to disable "check for updates"
Yes, it's a known issue. Here's the bug report:
Here's the workaround that allows you to leave update notifications enabled:
- File > Examples > SD > CardInfo - this will open the CardInfo example sketch folder
- Navigate up two folder levels to the SD folder
- Open library.properties in a text editor
- Change line 9 from:
architectures=avr,sam,samd,arc32
to:
architectures=*
- Save the file
@pert: This is hugely helpful -- thanks!
It wasn't a big deal, but still very annoying to get the "please-update-your-SD-1.21-library-to-SD-1.20" popup every time I launched the IDE.
