[Bug 1547517] Re: libdpdk should link against the library it uses

[ChristianEhrhardt]

I was working on a fix to bring it upstream first, but there our old discussion with a wider scope got picked up again.
=> http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/9088/
There are always tradeoffs to be made and we had quite some discussions on so-versioning and such I don't want to go in to, but the outcome of this will be the proper long term solution.
But that will be part of DPDK 2.3 and backporting into 2.2 is likely too invasive / not worth the effort as it will break our library consumers.
This will be part of bug 1546547


On the good side for this bug here, that means for a short term solution we don't have to create a generic solution.
Instead we can just fix the missing linkage options "for us" in a delta that can be dropped when moving to DPDK 2.3 with the solution mentioned above integrated.
