Anuj's focus is on this QAT v2.3.0-34 version for RiverForest platform on fido. Venkat's work on Crystal Forest and Highland Forest were on dizzy on older QAT version. There is no plan for now to upgrade the Highland Forest and Crystal Forest device support on Fido due to resource constraints and no strong marketing ask. Having said above, it is important to have at least matching filename, structure and reuse as much as common ingredient to minimize divergence in meta-data which Saul rightful pointed that out below. > >If it's intended as an upgrade then renaming from qat16 -> qat will allow for >that >to happen with out some additional METADATA, such as the PROVIDES_<pkg> / >RPROVIDES_<pkg> and RREPLACES_<pkg>. > > >Are you coordinating with [email protected], who is working >with the Dizzy based patches?
