Yeah. So long story short, the text you quoted was always wrong, and they  
finally fixed it by removing the notion of ‘a packaging bug’ which was  
never a packaging bug in RDO but a documentation bug in upstream docs.

I am glad to hear it’s not there anymore. That said, I would make sure that  
they actually have proper instructions on how to configure the agent (using  
openvswitch_agent.ini). [For linuxbridge, they are correct:  
http://docs.openstack.org/liberty/install-guide-rdo/neutron-compute-install-option1.html]
