Sorry, this patch fell into the cracks. I agree that this is not part of the ABI policy. This version only indicates something internal. But what I am proposing here is just to remove this special case. What is the point of exposing a special version, while the net drivers are the only one depending on those glue libs? Do you expect separate packaging for the net driver and its associated glue= lib? This special version also makes it impossible to install two versions of dpdk if those versions of dpdk need the same glue version. I still think it is better to align to the version of dpdk, though the commitlog needs some work. --=20 David Marchand
