While building the arducopter on Ubunutu 22, the following error was shown when building a signed firmware.
[89/95] Compiling Tools/AP_Bootloader/md5.cpp
…/…/libraries/AP_HAL_ChibiOS/Util.cpp: In member function ‘virtual AP_HAL::Util::FlashBootloader ChibiOS::Util::flash_bootloader()’:

there were no changes or updates done to the source code. Anyone faced similar issue?
Can someone help with this?

Use stable copter 4.4 code from ardupilot git for building and updations.
