Hi Yifeng,

I'm trying to test this patch on a RHEL 7.7 system but it requires python
sphinx and I can't
seem to find out how to install it.  I've found a bunch of RPMs but all of
them have
broken dependencies.

I've never installed the sphinx stuff before but now it's required. Did you
find a way
to install it?

Here is the error:
error: Failed build dependencies:
     /usr/bin/sphinx-build-3 is needed by openvswitch-2.12.90-1.el7.x86_64
It's easy to figure out how to get a particular file on Fedora or RHEL,
using "dnf provides":

     $ dnf provides /usr/bin/sphinx-build-3
     python3-sphinx-1:1.8.4-1.fc30.noarch : Python documentation generator
     Repo        : @System
     Matched from:
     Filename    : /usr/bin/sphinx-build-3

     python3-sphinx-1:1.8.4-1.fc30.noarch : Python documentation generator
     Repo        : fedora
     Matched from:
     Filename    : /usr/bin/sphinx-build-3

Then "sudo dnf install python3-sphinx" ought to fix the problem.

I tried 'yum whatprovides' and it found nothing.  I tried install dnf and then used 'dnf provides /usr/bin/sphinx-build-3'
but that also found nothing.

I'll try Yifeng's suggestion.

Thanks,

- Greg
