OVS 2.17.7 make debian not functional #286

Closed NickDcn closed 1 year ago

NickDcn commented 1 year ago

When attempting to run make debian with ovs version 2.17.7, make returns nothing to do for debian.

debian is a directory. make debian is asking make to produce a debian file/directory. So, there is indeed nothing to do.

If you're looking for how to build debian packages, follow the documentation: https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/blob/v2.17.7/Documentation/intro/install/debian.rst

Note that the debian packaging changed significantly in OVS 3.0, so instructions will be different for newer versions.
