STM32CubeMX v4.22 fails to merge L4 v1.8.1 patch with existing L4 v1.8.0 source tree. Instead it creates two distinctive trees, one for v1.8.0 and one for v1.8.1 when they are installed one after another, i.e. when you install v1.8.1 patch on top of existing v1.8.0 tree. Solution is to delete existing v1.8.0 repository entirely and install v1.8.1 from the scratch. I don't know it applies to other patches.

Btw. removing from 'patch' all files which were binary *identical* to those in 1.8.0, the zip reduced from some 440MBytes to some 84MBytes.

Oh yes, tens of megabytes of wavs and zips.

One more remark: while the patch is told to be v1.8.1, its zip actually contains a directory named STM32Cube_FW_L4_V1.8.0.

If this is not confusing, then what is?
