My point was "read the doc" before doing an "apt-get install openvswitch-switch" 


Maybe simply display minimum version in error message:

"Open VSwitch is not installed (need package 'openvswitch-switch>=2.0.90')"

For me, "need package 'openvswitch-switch'" and "Open VSwitch is not installed" is exactly the same. 
Please send a patch if you think your wording improve things. But you cannot use 'html' for error
