Added Bruce.
Having a library without any actual code compiled is (I think) new in DPDK.
On the other hand, for headers only, there should be no need for a
version.map file at all.
The current meson code expects that every library provides some files
to compile via the sources variable and it expects a version.map file
too.
I wonder if we could skip the whole library generation at the
lib/meson.build level.
Something like:
diff --git a/lib/meson.build b/lib/meson.build
index 179a272932..f0bbab6658 100644
--- a/lib/meson.build
+++ b/lib/meson.build

No version.map, no check to update :-)
