This mailing list here is a fine place for your AVRDUDE questions.

However, I'd really recommend you studying this document first:

http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

First, your message is completely unreadable (sic!) the way it is
formatted.  (I don't look at the HTML part, I'm only interested in the
plain text part of it.  HTML is for web sites, not for text messages.)
I displays as a large blurb of text, scattered over the screen.

Second, I tried to parse it, but all the relevant information is
missing.  In particular:

.. use the latest software, and use the original one, not some
  3rd-party version from the Arduino project or elsewhere

.. post details of *what* doesn't work, not just "it doesn't work"

.. post *what exactly* you have tried, both originally, as well in
  order to fix your problem

Btw., both the Arduino as well as the ATmega328P device have been
supported since version 5.6, so there is no real excuse for not using
the latest version (5.10).

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
