Why do I get the following error during the Quartus® II Analysis & Synthesis when upgrading an Avalon Memory-Mapped (Avalon-MM) Stratix® V Hard IP for PCI Express IP core design from version 12.1 to 13.0?

Description

There is an issue when creating a Quartus® II archive.  The ./megafunctions folder should not be included when archiving the Quartus® II project in a .qar file.

Resolution

To workaround this issue, remove the ./megafunctions folder from the archive.
