2017-02-07provide old ABI levels via backward compatibility of new DPDK libraries.Christian Ehrhardt1-0/+1
The cross dependencies in DPDK libraries would 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) The conflicts 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. Instead of adding a conflicts - whenever possible - provide a backward compatible wrapper symlinking to the new (ABI compatible) implementation.
