There was a problem hiding this comment.
As caught by the tests, this proposal does not work with restarts or upgrades, so I'm not sure how viable it is.
Please also see my comment on the canonical/microovn-operator#68 side of the feature.
MicroOVN will now check for a file, which if it finds it will allow the user to force install microovn alongside system OVS. The file should only exist if the user *really* knows what they are doing and intentionally creates it. Signed-off-by: MJ Ponsonby <mj.ponsonby@canonical.com>

the blocking behavior is moved to microovn.switch, this allows the user/charm to install microovn alongside OVS, prepare migration and then bootstrap microovn.
