This issue is similar to issue #850, and does not exist with v1.7.0.
Bisect shows this is the possible cause:

    Restructuring of STM32 definitions
    
    - Moved enum stlink_stm32_chipids to stm32.h
    - Moved additional MCU defines to stlink.h
    - Minor formatting improvements
    - Commented comparison for old/new chipid db

@Cypresslin Thanks for reporting. I've had a look at the respective commit, but couldn't detect the bug.
The mentioned chip-id has not vanished and should be detected correctly...

/usr/share//stlink/chips: No such file or directory

This looks as if the chip configuration files were not correctly installed.
Please clean-up your installation (make uninstall & make clean) and retry with make install, preferably with commit 14498bb. Then check if the directory /usr/share/stlink/chips is present and contains .chip files.

Please report back in order to resolve this issue.

[Nightwalker-87]

This is not a chip-specific issue.
The output message /usr/share//stlink/chips: No such file or directory indicates a compilation bug regarding the installation path of the .chip configuration files used to detect MCU devices.

This bug has been fixed in commit f93adb9.
The correct installation path is /usr/share/stlink/chips.
In order to resolve this, please clean-up your installation with make uninstall, then make clean, preferably check out the latest commit on the develop branch and proceed with make install.

Hello @Nightwalker-87

I have this tested with the latest tip 45b846bac on the develop branch,
and it looks like it's working well with this version.
