Dependencies should specify required package versions about ovn-kubernetes HOT 3 CLOSED

The file here has the "requests" as a requirement.

"pip install ." should have installed requests. The question is why it did not in your case. Or if it did, may be it installed a version that does not have the urllib3.

Now CNI plugin of OVN itself is tied to kubelet as that is the only one that calls it (it is not a daemon for OVN to log). Any error is returned back to kubelet. So it is fair that the error message is seen in kubelet.

@shettyg Thanks for the quick overview on how the components work, it makes a bit more sense now.

In regards to the dependencies, it did install requests, only an earlier version, and yes, it did seem the case where it didn't have urllib3. And a correction, not yum install -y python-requests fixed this, but pip install requests --upgrade.

Frankly, I don't understand pip enough to point out why it did not install the latest "requests" package. One possibility is that your pip itself was a older version which had a bug wherein it installs local copies instead of grabbing things from the internet.
