[VPP-1674] RDMA Driver conflict on RPM install on Fedora 29

[vvalderrv]

Description

Fresh install of Fedora 29 on bare metal and 'dnf update'. Build VPP:

 $ git clone https://gerrit.fd.io/r/vpp

 $ cd vpp

  $ make install-dep

  $ make pkg-rpm

Install VPP RPMs:

  $ sudo rpm -i build-root/*.rpm

    file /usr/include/rdma from install of vpp-devel-19.08-rc0~196_g7fe470a54.x86_64 conflicts with file from package kernel-headers-5.0.9-200.fc29.x86_64

    file /usr/include/rdma/ib_user_verbs.h from install of vpp-devel-19.08-rc0~196_g7fe470a54.x86_64 conflicts with file from package kernel-headers-5.0.9-200.fc29.x86_64

Other info:

  $ uname -r

  5.0.11-200.fc29.x86_64

$ ls /usr/include/rdma/

NOTE:

One thing that I don't understand is that the installed kernel is 5.0.11-200.fc29.x86_64, but the error message is 'conflicts with file from package kernel-headers-5.0.9-200.fc29.x86_64'. There are not any 5.0.9-200 directories on my system.

$ ls /usr/src/kernels/

5.0.11-200.fc29.x86_64 5.0.11-200.fc29.x86_64+debug

$ sudo find / -type d -name "5.0.9-200" -print 2>/dev/null
