missing u-boot repo

[antony]

I am compiling H5 boards, Nano Pi Neo 2 (wip) and Nano Pi Neo Plus 2 (disabled board) and getting errors building u-boot.

Looking further I noticed cache/sources/u-boot-sun50i/master/.gitmodules is points to a missing git repo

[submodule "u-boot"]
        path = u-boot
        url = https://github.com/apritzel/u-boot.git
        branch = h5

 

I don't see h5 brnach in that repo.

 

config/sources/sunxi64_common.inc   has this line

BOOTSOURCE='https://github.com/zador-blood-stained/u-boot-sun50i.git' 

https://github.com/armbian/u-boot-sun50i/blob/master/.gitmodules points to missing repository.

 

   points missing repo.  

 

Can someone share a copy of https://github.com/apritzel/u-boot.git  h5 via github? or know a replacement repository for this? I thought getting a copy would be a quick fix for me, since these boards are not supported. A proper fix could take a while. I tried u-boot-sunxi and patches does not seems apply.  

thanks,

seems like known issue,  @smaeul    pointed me to

The u-boot branch that we were using was deleted just 2 days ago. Since the migration was planned within a month, it will take some time to migrate. possibly more than a week.

Ah great, this explains why I've not been able to build a Pine64 image.

I salvaged an old copy from my backup now I can build Nano PI Neo 2 and Nano Pi Neo Plus2 again.

Here my copy while waiting for a real fix from Amrbian developers.
