Subject: [PATCH] examples: remove check for old broken pkg-config
Date: Wed, 14 May 2025 11:03:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250514100306.11717-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
The version of pkg-config shipped with RHEL 7 had issues reporting the
linker flags for DPDK, meaning we couldn't build the examples statically
using it. However, as RHEL 7 is no longer supported by future DPDK
releases, we can drop the check for this condition from all the
Makefiles. More recent pkg-config versions don't have this issue.
