![]() ![]() This is even written on the devkitPro Trademark page ( ) - "Verbatim copies may be made without violating the devkitPro trademarks". I am not doing that, as I am just redistributing official binaries. A trademark is supposed to prevent others from making different products / things under a trademarked name. Hopefully this can help a few people with compiling older homebrew which isn't adapted to the newest devkitPro version.įirst of all, this is not a trademark issue. If so, it would be cool if you could send these to me (upload them somewhere and send me a link in a private message) so I can add them to my archive. I am now hoping that there are other people out here who might also have collected some older versions (especially Linux builds since I mostly have windows versions for the old devkitPPC versions). And getting the correct version of devkitPPC and libogc isn't always easy, because the DevkitPro-pacman installer only allows you to download the most recent one, and the old download links from sourceforge were removed earlier this year.Īccording to the developers of devkitPro, the homebrew developers are supposed to fix their apps to work with new versions, and that devkitPro has no "versions" at all ( ), but that is simply not practical for old homebrew that no longer has any maintainer.Īs neither the GPL nor the trademark of devkitPro prevent one from redistributing the old releases (as long as they are unmodified), I started collecting all the versions I can get and host them here: In the past, there have been multiple times where I wanted to compile a Wii homebrew and found out that my devkitPro / devkitPPC toolchain was either too old or too new to compile said homebrew.
