How to Install Open vSwitch on NetBSD

On NetBSD, you might want to install requirements from pkgsrc. In that case, you need at least the following packages.

  • automake
  • libtool-base
  • gmake
  • python27
  • py27-six
  • py27-xml
  • pkg_alternatives

Some components have additional requirements. (See INSTALL.md)

Assuming you are running NetBSD/amd64 6.1.2, you can download and install pre-built binary packages as the following. (You might get some warnings about minor version mismatch. Don't care.)

```
# PKG_PATH=http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/6.1.2/All/
# export PKG_PATH
# pkg_add automake libtool-base gmake python27 py27-six py27-xml pkg_alternatives
```

NetBSD's /usr/bin/make is not GNU make. GNU make is installed as /usr/pkg/bin/gmake by the above mentioned gmake package.

As all executables installed with pkgsrc are placed in /usr/pkg/bin/ directory, it might be a good idea to add it to your PATH.

Open vSwitch on NetBSD is currently "userspace switch" implementation in the sense described in INSTALL.userspace.md and PORTING.md.
