You installed binary packages, not the sources.

If you want to edit and compile openvswitch on the target then just fetch
it using git and edit/compile/install using gcc and so on (adding tools-sdk
to IMAGE_FEATURES will give you a full toolchain to get this started).

Alternatively you can use devtool to edit on your build machine and deploy
updated binaries to your target.  The Development Manual covers this,
