[ovs-dev] Bug#684057: openvswitch-switch - Does not start with upstream openvswitch module

[Bastian Blank]

Package: openvswitch-switch
Version: 1.4.2+git20120612-8
Severity: grave

The openvswitch-switch init script fails if openvswitch included in
Linux should be used.

| # invoke-rc.d openvswitch-switch start
| FATAL: Module openvswitch_mod not found.
| Inserting openvswitch module ... failed!
| Module has probably not been built for this kernel.
| Install the openvswitch-datapath-source package, then read
| /usr/share/doc/openvswitch-datapath-source/README.Debian
| FATAL: Module openvswitch_mod not found.
| Inserting openvswitch module ... failed!
| invoke-rc.d: initscript openvswitch-switch, action "start" failed.

The module is already loaded:
| # lsmod | grep openvswitch
| openvswitch            33734  0
