DPDK 18.11 can be built using the more modern meson build system. In that case it no more provides the -ldpdk linker script. Instead it is expected to use pkgconfig for linker options as well.
FYI here a build log on Ubuntu 19.04 with the three patches applied: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/409021278/buildlog_ubuntu-disco-amd64.openvswitch_2.11.0~git20190121.4e4f80ec2-0ubuntu1~ppa5_BUILDING.txt.gz Updates from v3: - change separation of multiple actions in PKG_CHECK_MODULES_STATIC to newlines to avoid trailing commas in some build environments Updates from v2: - patches were formerly structured for reviewability, but to guarantee travis requirements to pass the build individually and not as a series they are now squashed to be acceptable Updates from v1: - add updated pkg.m4 to support PKG_CHECK_MODULES_STATIC - include local pkg.m4 in configure.ac Christian Ehrhardt (1): acinclude: Also use LIBS from dpkg pkg-config acinclude.m4 | 21 +++-- configure.ac | 2 + m4/pkg.m4 | 217 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 3 files changed, 157 insertions(+), 83 deletions(-) -- 2.17.1 _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
