[Bug 1814060] Re: Disco: Please demote some binaries of src:dpdk to universe (and afterwards remove 17.11 binaries if any are left)

[Christian Ehrhardt ]

I just learned (thanks Steve) that we have one more thing that needs to be resolved.
Our -dev package pulls int libdpdk-dev -> intel-ipsec-mb (which is correct).
We want libdpdk-dev to be demoted as well as part of all of this (you can build universe and main dependencies out of it, we want it to have the deps for both and build dependencies don't have to be in main).

But to achieve that we need to resolve that "-dev packages are autopromoted so long as any binary from the source is in main;" That is our case we will have binaries (what is pulled from "dpdk" via openvswitch) in main.
Therefore I learned that "So if you want libdpdk-dev out of main, you need to add it to Extra-Exclude in the seed"

That is in https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/+git/ubuntu/tree/supported
So I opened an MP to add libdpdk-dev there.

Thanks Steve for telling me about that.
@AA's - in case there is anything else missing let me know.
