[dpdk-dev] compilation error with 1.6.0r2

[Prashant Upadhyaya]

[resending on the list]


Hi,



I recently picked the 1.6.0r2 from dpdk.org and tried to compile it the
usual way and ran into the following compilation error.

I am aware I can sidestep these by getting the compiler to treat them as
warnings, but these did not use to come with 1.6.0r1 so wanted to report it
here.

I am using Fedora 18 to compile this version of DPDK.



Regards
