    "content": "As part of the meson build, a pkg-config file for libdpdk is created, which\nallows apps to be compiled and linked against DPDK by taking the cflags and\nlib parameter from pkgconfig. The example app makefiles have been reworked\nto take account of this support, but the build of them against the .pc file\nwas not regularly tested.\n\nTo rectify this, and give us greater confidence in the correctness of the\n.pc file, this set adds in the sample apps to the installation set for\n\"ninja install\" and then builds a subset of those apps against the\npkg-config file to test it. In the process a small error when compiling\nthe cmdline sample app using the .pc file was fixed.\n\nV2: Fixed a number of other problems encountered on FreeBSD. Replaced\n    patch 2 of the original set, which broke on BSD with patch 6 of this\n    set, which is the more correct solution.\n\nBruce Richardson (6):\n  examples/l3fwd: fix compile on freebsd\n  examples: install examples as part of ninja install\n  build: fix ninja install on FreeBSD\n  devtools/test-meson-builds: add testing of pkg-config file\n  build: add libbsd to pkg-config file if enabled\n  examples: remove auto-generation of examples list\n\n buildtools/symlink-drivers-solibs.sh |  7 +++--\n config/meson.build                   | 17 ++++++++----\n devtools/test-meson-builds.sh        | 27 ++++++++++++++++++\n examples/l3fwd/l3fwd_lpm.c           |  1 +\n examples/meson.build                 | 41 +++++++++++++++++++++++++---\n meson.build                          |  9 ++----\n 6 files changed, 82 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-)"
