Absolutely!

The syntax "make install T=" is old.
It should be replaced by "make config T=" + "make".
You can look at devtools/test-build.sh to see how compilation can be done.
It is also documented in various places like:
	doc/guides/linux_gsg/build_dpdk.rst
	doc/guides/prog_guide/dev_kit_root_make_help.rst

More options:
	- use meson build system in dpdk-setup.sh - maybe too early
	- remove dpdk-setup.sh - maybe used by real users
