Hello Joe,
Thank you!
I am trying to install 2.1.3. When I try to install the Debain for kernel
module, I get this error
sanket@sanket-ubuntu-ovs:~$ sudo dpkg -i
openvswitch-datapath-dkms_2.1.3-1_all.deb
(Reading database ... 235774 files and directories currently installed.)

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.16.0-28-generic (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/openvswitch/2.1.3/build/make.log for more information.
I know that the error is because the ./configure needs linux 3.11.x or earlier.
But it automatically looks for 3.16. How do I change this line so it can take
3.11.x instead? I couldn’t locate it.
Thank you.

Linux distros typically provide a single version of a package. If you want a
different version, you'll need to either obtain the packages from another
location or build your own.
