Hello Manuel,
Thanks. I figured out how to get that package installed. I just
decided to build the standard
Pi3 Configuration instead. I haven't gotten a build to work yet. From
download issues to
in-operability. I hope someone else who has been successful with
getting a Pi3 sdcard to work
can chime in and help me out.
On a different note would it better that I clone the repository instead
of download ZIPs? It seems
that with all of the activity I might benefit from
fetching/pulling/rebasing. I was hopeful that I
would get lucky and the first time it would work for me, but that seems
to be unrealistic.
Thanks,
Chris
