INSTALL.md says:
By default all files are installed under /usr/local. Open vSwitch also
expects to find its database in /usr/local/etc/openvswitch by default.
If you want to install all files into, e.g., /usr and /var instead of
/usr/local and /usr/local/var and expect to use /etc/openvswitch as the
default
database directory, add options as shown here:
`% ./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc`
