Subject: unixctl.py: Allow callers to manually set unixctl version.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=75c8be3c0aa21bff5416b225ab84349a49610af1;p=openvswitch

unixctl.py: Allow callers to manually set unixctl version.

Some clients of unixctl.py may want to use a different version than
the one supplied in ovs.version.VERSION.  This patch supports an
optional manual override of this value.

Feature #10383.
