Public bug reported:

Upgrading and existing openvswitch installation which has been manually
configured to use the DPDK alternative binary using:

  sudo update-alternatives --set ovs-vswitchd /usr/lib/openvswitch-
switch-dpdk/ovs-vswitchd-dpdk

results in the ovs-vswitchd being reset back to 'auto':

Setting up openvswitch-switch (2.11.0-0ubuntu2~cloud0) ...
update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/openvswitch-switch/ovs-vswitchd to provide 
/usr/sbin/ovs-vswitchd (ovs-vswitchd) in auto mode


The prerm maintainer scripts always remove the alternatives, which purges any 
manual setting done of the binaries.

** Affects: openvswitch (Ubuntu)
