Tested with Essex release on Precise Beta2 using the OVS plugin.

Would be great if someone with debian packaging experience could take a
look at this, as things currently seem pretty busted, though perhaps I'm
doing something wrong.

Here's a list of issues:

Ran apt-get install quantum-server

Could not install quantum-server
- chown: cannot access `/etc/quantum/' : No such file or directory
- chown: cannot access `/var/run/quantum/' : No such file or directory

Fixed this by making the directories manually

- plugins.ini and quantum.conf should be copied from "etc" directory in
source to /etc/quantum .  /etc/quantum is empty right now.

- "service quantum-server start" doesn't work.  No init scripts.

- quantum-ryu-agent was installed in /usr/bin even though I didn't install
the ryu plugin.

Ran apt-get install quantum-openvswitch-plugin

- quantum-openvswitch-agent was installed into
/usr/bin/quantum-openvswitch-agent/quantum-openvswitch-agent, so it did not
show up in the path.

- no logging to /var/log/quantum (at least server logging should go here,
ideally agents would have log as well)

- mysql, python-mysqldb  should be a dependency for the
quantum-openvswitch-plugin

- I suspect agents should be separate packages from the main plugin
packages.  Plugins correspond to code that is running on the main quantum
controller (i.e., the node running the API) . Agents run on each compute
node, managing the vswitch.

- ovs quantum agent package should depend on python-mysqldb and
openvswitch-switch

- ideally, agent would have init scripts as well.
