Qmk_firmware: [ErgoDone] error reading intel hex file

[homocomputeris]

I cannot flash ErgoDone in Arch:

./hid_bootloader_cli -mmcu=atmega32u4 ergodone_default.hex 
error reading intel hex file "ergodone_default.hex"

The build seems to be fine:

make clean && make ergodone:default
QMK Firmware 0.6.123
Deleting .build ... done
QMK Firmware 0.6.123

IIRC, this is a bug to do with avr-gcc 8.2.0: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/3657

[drashna]

Yeah, it's an avr-gcc 8.2 specific issue with the Pro Micro or caterina bootloader.
