[Pkg-dpdk-devel] Bug#921043: dpdk-dev: dpdk-sdk-env.sh no longer included in dpdk-dev

[Nicolas S. Dade]

Package: dpdk-dev
Version: 18.11-4~bpo9+1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The file
 /usr/share/dpdk/dpdk-sdk-env.sh
used to be part of the dpdk-dev packages. It defines the environment
variables needed to use the dpdk sdk, and the debian documentation
recommended sourcing it into your shell in order to use dpdk.

The file debian/dpsk-sdk-env.sh.in file is present in the dpdk
18.11-4~bpo9+1 sources, but the line in debian/rule that produced it
is missing. (For that matter, other lines related to the dpdk-dev package
in rules are missing too).

Perhaps this is on purpose. But I don't see it in changelog, nor do I
see a suitable alternative.
