Hi Christian,

Thanks for this, this patch will cause the travis build to fail, I'd suggest it 
be rolled into patch 2 of the series as its expected for all patches to pass 
the build individually rather than being corrected by a later patch in the 
series.

Just a query for the RHEL folks, I remember there being some concern as the 
DPDK userspace conference with regards to dependencies required for the meson 
build of DPDK not being supported in RHEL distros, is this still the case?

Ian
