Hi Rock, I don't have a problem with waiting for a release in SID but I wanted to try and get several electronic tools I use for hobby reported such that someone with expertise can fix them. I have no problems with the work around I have attached I just created my own script installer in the meantime because the AVR ICE programmer which I use is supported on Arduino IDE 1.8.4 or greater the best. The other package I am using is avrdude and avrgcc which is used in conjunction with Arduino no other dependencies I use.
I have filled a bug in the avrgcc package relating to using MPLab and avrgcc but I have yet to hear anything back on that bug yet and is not a huge issue as explained I have a work around for both issues so far so no hurry here. Thanks for all your hard work, I hope soon I can try and help but at the moment don't have much experience packaging.
