As for the feed.  Yes they are inconsistent.   We were moving away from a global nuget.org feed as it just didn't seem necessary to push to nuget.org.  But now we are evaluating ways to move entirely away from nuget.  Nuget.exe worked pretty well for Windows development and our initial use cases but has definitely created a headache on Linux, MacOS and other.  There really isn't a generic package management solution that is supported cross platform that has free/high quality/secure hosting.  If anyone has ideas please share.


So my suggestion is to hold off for a couple of weeks (unless something is broken) and lets see if we can use web downloads from github releases.  This should still allow consistency with tools, work cross platform, and give the flexibility needed per platform.

That's great news! That would remove a major impediment to using the stuart tools for me on FreeBSD, and a hassle getting setup on Linux.

Regarding the steps in that document.  In that example it doesn't call out all the steps needed as that would just rehash the section before.  Instead it relies on a user having followed the generic steps in the section above (How to Build With Stuart · tianocore/tianocore.github.io Wiki <https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/How-to-Build-With-Stuart#how-to-build-in-edk2-with-stuart>).  For example the user would need to have also done:  setup python virtual env, install pypi dependencies, and clone source + submodules.

I hadn't realized that .pytool/CISettings.py was for CI and I should swap out the platform's UefiBuilder script when running stuart_setup/stuart_update.
