There are some leftover mentions of the some deb packages in Documentation/intro/install/distributions.rst and Documentation/tutorials/ipsec.rst after this patch. Not sure where this would best fit in the series... but since later patch don't reintroduce dkms stuff, I would drop this mention either in this current patch or in a next separate patch before going on with the rest of the changes. -- David Marchand _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
