Re: [dpdk-dev] Unable to compile DPDK 1.5 on Debian GNU/Linux: lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/igb_uio

[Marc Sune <marc.sune@bisdn.de>]

Strange, I tried it with three different Debian Wheezy installations, 
two of them fresh, and all of them failed in the exact same point. So I 
am not sure... I was also puzzled when DPDK was compiling on one of our 
Ubuntu systems and not in the other Ubuntu one, with the exact same error.
