Hi Kevin,

Rodger, got it this time – I had indeed missed the clue about the maintainers.

I should RTFM more often….

Many thanks for your help and patience ☺.

As you can read in the ReadMe.md Khem Raj and Yves Vandervennet are the official maintainers of github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera<http://github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera>

I really recommend to use github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera<http://github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera> instead of the fork from Khem Raj. But since you use the fork of one of the maintainers, it will probably be most of the time in synch with the altera-opensource repository.

As far as I understand it Altera only maintains the one repo.

Hi Alex, Dalon, Kevin, Lists

hmmm, so I guess I'm still confused (sorry).

Alex recommends going via the "official" oe layers index, which currently links directly to github.com/kraj/meta-altera<http://github.com/kraj/meta-altera>.

Kevin and Dalon hold out for github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera<http://github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera>, and Dalon specifically says "... and repos under any user name in github are forks".

So is there an official ;-) dichotomy between altera and oe?

Thanks for listening...

 Hi Guys; confused noob here...

 There appear to be (at least) two "official" repos for meta-altera:

         github.com/kraj/meta-altera<http://github.com/kraj/meta-altera>

 and

         git.rocketboards.org/meta-altera.git<http://git.rocketboards.org/meta-altera.git>


 So how should I choose between them?

 Thanks!

 Sorry about the company sig.: I can't switch it off.


fwiw I would usually start with the official index

http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/layers/

This seems to point to github

Cheers, Alex
