I don't understand the problem. Currently the Debian version number is 2.5.90-1. This filters it to 2.5.90. What's the problem? We've never used a version number like 3:2.5.0-myOvs-12-1, where does that come from? _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
