Hi Gregory, As you pointed out, it fails to build. There are several reasons. One related to groff vs groff base, the other is related to Sphinx.
See below my notes on the subject. Replace groff with groff-base, and comment out sphinx line in openvswitch-fedora.spec: BuildRequires: groff-base graphviz #BuildRequires: %{_py2}-sphinx Remember to install sphinx with pip: curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py python get-pip.py pip install enum34 pip install ipaddress pip install jsonschema pip install pyasn1 pip install --ignore-installed Sphinx Additionally, add the following line if running into ERROR: No build ID note found in error: %undefine _missing_build_ids_terminate_build Regards, Paul Best Regards, Paul Greenberg ________________________________ From: Gregory Rose <gvrose8...@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, June 22, 2018 6:36:25 PM To: Paul Greenberg; ovs-discuss@openvswitch.org Subject: Re: [ovs-discuss] openvswitch-kmod: on uninstall, get depmod: ERROR: fstatat On 6/21/2018 7:02 PM, Paul Greenberg wrote: Hi Gregory, I compiled from fedora spec, but the underlying OS is RHEL 7.5 I'm using the instructions from ../Documentation/intro/install/fedora.rst and I can't get it to work at all on my RHEL 7.5 machine - I can't even get it configured. I run 'sudo yum-builddep /tmp/ovs.spec' and get the following errors: Error: No Package found for groff Error: No Package found for python-sphinx Error: No Package found for python-twisted-core Error: No Package found for python-zope-interface But they *are* installed.

Maybe some folks from Red Hat can have a look? Spec.in files aren't my forte. - Greg Best Regards, Paul Greenberg ________________________________ From: ovs-discuss-boun...@openvswitch.org<mailto:ovs-discuss-boun...@openvswitch.org> <ovs-discuss-boun...@openvswitch.org><mailto:ovs-discuss-boun...@openvswitch.org> on behalf of Gregory Rose <gvrose8...@gmail.com><mailto:gvrose8...@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2018 5:23:12 PM To: ovs-discuss@openvswitch.org<mailto:ovs-discuss@openvswitch.org> Subject: Re: [ovs-discuss] openvswitch-kmod: on uninstall, get depmod: ERROR: fstatat On 6/18/2018 8:14 PM, Paul Greenberg wrote: > Build Fedora RPM from 2.9.90.
