[Bug 1546550] [NEW] openvswitch-switch-dpdk links against libdpdk statically

[ChristianEhrhardt]

Public bug reported:

One might think it has no DPDK support when liiking at it as well as this is kind of an exception of the usual library handling.
So for example openvswitch-switch-dpdk depends on libdpdk0 which seems right.
But in fact it would not have to as it is build with that library being statically linked.

ldd /usr/lib/openvswitch-switch-dpdk/ovs-vswitchd-dpdk
        linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007ffe1eb74000)
        libssl.so.1.0.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 (0x00007f9b0524c000)
        libcrypto.so.1.0.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 (0x00007f9b04e0a000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f9b04c05000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f9b049e7000)
        librt.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so.1 (0x00007f9b047df000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007f9b044d6000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f9b0410c000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000556b2d0db000)

Eventually that should be changed to allow a "normal" library handling
