How do I install Open vSwitch on raring? I can't find any official Ubuntu docs on this anywhere.

DevStack seems to do this:

    kernel_version=`cat /proc/version | cut -d " " -f3`
    apt-get install make fakeroot dkms openvswitch-switch openvswitch-datapath-dkms linux-headers-$kernel_version

On the other hand, this blog does this:

 apt-get install openvswitch-datapath-source openvswitch-common openvswitch-switch
