The only package which should own %{_prefix} is something like setup
or filesystem in the core OS package set. No openmpi RPM should ever
own %{_prefix}, so it should never appear in %files, either by itself
or with %dir.

"files listed twice" messages are not errors, per se, and can usually
be safely ignored. Those who are truly bothered by them can always
add %exclude directives if they so choose.
