Jim,

In addition to all of this, note that the 'zeus' branch was only 
supported until
August 2020:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases


If you want longer term support to be able to use a well maintained
release of Yocto for 5, 10 or 15 years, there are vendors, including
Wind River, that supply those services. See:
https://www.yoctoproject.org/ecosystem/members/

Good luck,
