Official Openvswitch Package For CentOS7
Hi all,
Exists an official openvswitch package for CentOS7?? If I am not wrong, this:
http://mirror.CentOS.org/CentOS/7/cloud/x86_64/openstack-kilo/openstack-neutron-openvswitch-2015.1.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm
it can be used with openstack only.
Do I need to recompile from source like is is explained here:

or exists another rpm package for CentOS7??
Thanks.

Since you’re sending this to CentOS-virt, I assume you want to use openvswitch for virtualization?
If you think it would be particularly helpful to have an openvswitch package in the Virt SIG, then we could consider adding it.

Correct, I will need to use for virtualization. In my case, only for KVM. I don’t use LXC or Docker.
And in my opinion, I think it could be a great idea.
Thanks.
Alan what do you think? Should we move openvswitch from cloud/openstack to virt/kvm-common ?
Since Xen users may want it too, it should probably have its own repo
(so that both virt/kvm and virt/xen can use it).

Many thanks
If not, there definitely should be. :-)
I’m actually not working today — Sandro and Alan, let’s sync up over e-mail on Monday (and/or at the Virt SIG meeting on IRC on Tuesday).

+1, Cloudstack also uses openvswitch and a proper RPM for it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
+1 on my side. oVirt has several packages tagged in from cloud SIG, maybe we can have them in this virt-common repo as well. Or maybe already exists something like cloud-common we can depend on.
FWIW, I’ve had a ticket in since last summer asking for an EPEL 7 build. :/

that would be great, +1
