Remote for dtc submodule points to deprecated git.qemu-project.org

[0xjmux]

Following this guide on the xilinx-wiki, I'm trying to get a working qemu executable to simulate some custom hardware.

The git submodule update --init dtc step fails, with error:

Submodule 'dtc' (git://git.qemu-project.org/dtc.git) registered for path 'dtc'
Cloning into '/[path]/xilinx-qemu/dtc'...
fatal: unable to connect to git.qemu-project.org:
git.qemu-project.org[0: 20.218.253.93]: errno=Connection timed out

fatal: clone of 'git://git.qemu-project.org/dtc.git' into submodule path '/[path]/xilinx-qemu/dtc' failed

When you navigate to https://git.qemu-project.org, it redirects to their Gitlab.

Since the repo was migrated, git isn't able to fetch the submodules; if that link (and any others still pointing to the old location) could be updated, it should fix the issue.

Also, is that configure script still working? Or is there another way to get a working xilinx-qemu binary? Thanks.

Hi @0xjmux ,

Can you please retry? (Above worked for me)
