-# All following packages are for ABI compatibility to older releases.
-# Newer DPDK versions are ABI compatible to older ones for at least one release
-# and more if maintainable.
-#
-# The cross dependencies in DPDK libraries would otherwise force us to conflict
-# with older ABI versions to avoid double ld.so resolution
-# (https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2017-February/039659.html).
-#
-# But the conflicts in debian/control would make the old versions and thereby
-# the dependent applications non-installable until there is a rebuild (as other
-# updates would do).
-# But for our case that would deny most benefits of version named libraries
-# (e.g. the ability to have both).
-#
-# Instead of adding conflicts fields - whenever possible - provide a backward
-# compatible wrapper symlinking to the new (ABI compatible) implementation.
-#
-# Still as soon as (all) dependendent packages are rebuilt these compat
-# wrappers can be autoremoved (apt will take care of that)
