I am noticing that links in the Online DMG for 5.5 are referencing the 2014 rules example Staff of Withering in 5.5 may be attuned by anyone but the one actually linked in the 5.5 DMG is sending me to one that is only attunable by Cleric, Druid, or Warlock and gives the reference page of 205. Clearly, this refers to the old book.
It's not so much that it's linking to the old version as that they didn't create a new version of it at all. They mostly didn't do this for items that didn't have any meaningful changes between the 5e and 5.5e versions. It looks like they missed the change in attunement restrictions and mistakenly thought they didn't need to create a new version for this one.
The correct page reference for 5.5e is page 312, if that's of use to anyone.
