Do you build form upstream source or the ubunut packaged source? Also depending on what you do you might just install it as DPDK is available in Xenial.
Since it builds in sbuild/adt/locally for X and Y for me I just gave a quick try. # get build environment with all you need to dpdk sudo apt install ubuntu-dev-tools build-essential sudo apt-get build-dep dpdk # build what we package: pull-lp-source dpdk ./debian/rules build # upstream 2.2 wget http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/snapshot/dpdk-2.2.0.tar.gz tar -xzf dpdk-2.2.0.tar.gz cd dpdk-2.2.0 make T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc config There are some issues with gcc 5 and the native config which were fixed post 2.2, so I'd recommend for now: sed -ri -e 's,(RTE_MACHINE=).*,\1"default",' build/.config make Both work for me. If this really is an issue we need more information why/how that is caused, because as I just shown both options seem to work for me. ** Changed in: dpdk (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578118 Title: DPDK compile error with ubuntu 16.04 glibc 2.23-0ubuntu3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpdk/+bug/1578118/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
