Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: notify bug in pkg-config v0.27
Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2020 20:17:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201117181746.17904-1-getelson@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201029091638.26646-1-getelson@nvidia.com>
DPDK relies on pkg-config(1) to provide correct parameters for
compiler and linker used in application build. Inaccurate build
parameters, produced by pkg-config from DPDK .pc files could fail
application build or cause unpredicted results during application
runtime.
Update system requirements doc about a bug in pkg-config v0.27 used in
RH-7.
