[dpdk-users] Build on Windows not working: "ERROR: Program 'echo' not found"

[Rob Scheepens]

Hello Dmitry,

That works, thanks!

Is there an issue open for this? If not, should I create one?

It fails however and output ends with “doc\meson.build:14:0: ERROR: Program 'echo' not found”. Looking in the log I also see file not found errors for various header files under linux\*.h, for example:

Full log is attached. What am I missing?

    Hello, Rob!

    Try using Meson 0.53.2.
    There seems to be an issue with Meson 0.58.1 on Windows.
