Hi All,

Having a problem installing openvswitch. When I type:
Code:
apt-get install openvswitch-switch

I get the error:
Code:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
openvswitch-switch : Depends: libatomic1 (>= 4.8) but it is not installable
                      Depends: openvswitch-common (= 2.3.0+git20140819-3+deb8u1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In the sources I have:
Code:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org jessie/updates main contrib

I am running on 4.3-1/e7cdc165
 
works here, please run:

> apt-get update
> apt-get dist-upgrade
> apt-get install openvswitch-switch
