Avalon Verification IP Suite: Stream Example is not working

Hi Sheng,

thanks, with the file from github I managed to get further in the compilation. Why is this not included in the Quartus/Questa installation?

However I still fail to get the simulation running. I have attached the full project including the verbosity_pkg.sv so you should be able to reproduce the error:

It seems to be rather tricky to get the official example running. Are the Avalon BFM Verification IP cores still recommended by Intel for usage or considered deprecated?
