Hi Aaron

I had been running the dpdk ci daily, however only a few runs last month 
as I have been distracted.
I have see transient failures I attribute to the travis infrastructure 
issue, things like failure to install dependencies or out of space 
issues.  The out of space problems I have only seen on ppc and arm.
