Subject: [dpdk-stable] filenames of DPDK stable packages
Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2018 13:34:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <59AF69C657FD0841A61C55336867B5B072664923@IRSMSX103.ger.corp.intel.com> (raw)

Hi all,

looking to update the DPDK port in FreeBSD and was going to use the stable LTS trees rather than bleeding edge, but it proved more difficult than I would like because of filenames. The regular DPDK releases all use standard names, where "dpdk-x.y.tar.gz" unzips to a folder called "dpdk-x.y". However, for the stable releases like "dpdk-17.11.3.tar.gz", they unzip to a folder called "dpdk-stable-17.11.3" - i.e. the package name and unzipped names do not match. This is obviously something that can be worked around, but it's a bit of a pain.

Therefore a small ask - can we please provide a package for stable releases where the standard naming convention is used. I quite like having the "dpdk-stable" in the name, so perhaps as well as the regular tarball, could we also have a copy on the server called e.g. "dpdk-stable-17.11.3.tar.gz"?

Thanks,
/Bruce
