1 openvswitch (1.2.1-3) unstable; urgency=low
3 * Allow the openvswitch-switch init script to fail gracefully
4 if the openvswitch_mod module can't be loaded. This avoids
5 failure to install the openvswitch-switch package in the case
6 where the module isn't available.
8 This resolves a regression between 1.1.1 and 1.2.1.

14 * Install python modules into /usr/share/pyshared/ovs/
15 rather than usr/share/pyshared/python-openvswitch/ovs/
16 This allows them to be found using the default sys.path
17 as they were able to be found befoer the dh_python2 transition
20 This resolves a problem whereby openvswitch-ipsec fails
21 to start because it can't import the ovs.db module.

27 * New upstream version
29 - Remove excess files from ovsdbmonitor package
31 * Add dependency on ${misc:Depends} to openvswitch-brcompat and ovsdbmonitor.
32 * Resolve manpage warnings
33 * Transition to dh_python2
34 * Set -e in brcompat's postinst script so that it doesn't ignore errors

38 openvswitch (1.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
41 * New upstream version
42 - New "ofproto" abstraction layer to ease porting to hardware
44 - Packaging for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 and 6.0.
45 - Datapath support for Linux kernels up to 3.0.
47 - New "bundle" and "bundle_load" action extensions.
49 - Implement table unique constraints.
50 - Support cooperative locking between callers.
52 - New "-s" option for "show" command prints packet and byte
53 counters for each port.
55 - New "--readd" option for "replace-flows".
57 - New "show" command to print an overview of configuration.
58 - New "comment" command to add remark that explains intentions.
59 - ovs-brcompatd has been rewritten to fix long-standing bugs.
60 - ovs-openflowd has been renamed test-openflowd and moved into the
61 tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please
62 use ovs-vswitchd instead.
63 - New ovs-benchmark utility to test flow setup performance.
64 - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
65 "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
66 "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at
67 level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged
69 - "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and
70 --with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old
71 names will be removed after the next release, so please update
73 - The "-2.6" suffix has been dropped from the datapath/linux-2.6 and
74 datapath/linux-2.6/compat-2.6 directories.
76 - Dropped support for "tun_id_from_cookie" OpenFlow extension.
77 Please use the extensible match extensions instead.
78 - Removed the Maintenance_Point and Monitor tables in an effort
79 to simplify 802.1ag configuration.
80 - Performance and scalability improvements

162 to ease debugging complex flow tables.

166 unreferenced rows will be deleted automatically.
167 - Many tables now include statistics updated periodically by
168 ovs-vswitchd or ovsdb-server.
169 - Every table now has an "external-ids" column for use by OVS
171 - There is no default controller anymore. Each bridge must have its
