To help investigate this issue, can you perhaps include the text of the full build output when you run "make static". On my system I see libelf listed on the linker flags when I run "make static", and things link properly. I'm wondering how my setup may differ from yours. /Bruce > -----Original Message----- > From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richard...@intel.com> > Sent: Wednesday, May 3, 2023 10:35 AM > To: Gilbert Carrillo <gcarri...@ampex.com> > Cc: dev@dpdk.org > Subject: Re: DPDK 22.11 Troubleshooting > > On Wed, May 03, 2023 at 04:22:05PM +0000, Gilbert Carrillo wrote: > > Hi Bruce, > > > > Thank you for the response. > > > > There is no errors when I run the makefile, however I do see a difference > > in the programs.
