Hello DPDK developers,
I experienced issue when I ran tools/setup.sh and chose option [23]: Bind Ethernet device to IGB UIO module.
Script Output:
File ".../dpdk/dpdk-2.2.0/tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py", line 113
    """ % locals() # replace items from local variables
      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
It turned out that python 2.7 set as default in system was needed.
So I added python2 to every line with dpdk_nic_bind.py call in tools/setup.sh and now it works fine.
But the question is: is it expected behaviour? Shouldn't it be fixed by simple patch in way I did it?
 
Regards,
Dawid
