atmega 328 (not p) support

Atmega 328 is not supported in avrdude.conf file used by Arduino. The avrdude.conf file has been updated in Github, but the latest version is not used by Arduino.

How is Arduino software produced and why is avrdude.conf not up to date. I don't see how errors in documentation are reported and corrected.

It seems the .conf file just needs an extra entry. Removing the p suffix and changing the third byte from 0F to 14 as read back by avrdude from the 328.

Strange that the error still exists. If I can help in the change process I will.

Moderator edit: link corrected

That's what I said. The Arduino version of avrdude is not up to date. How is Arduino code updated???

Typically, using a pull request through Github...

However, the toolset is handled as a special case. Probably the most effective course is to pick a related issue and add your support (comments)...

It looks like #611 and/or #491 are good choices.

Thanks
