Ah! That would indicate an issue with the external hwloc package they provided, which is the big reason we don't recommend installing from packages. We have internal copies of hwloc and libevent that ensure (a) they are at the proper level, and (b) they are configured properly for OMPI's use.
We've had that debate with the Fedora folks recently - they won't take our advice, so I'm afraid you'll just need to build from source to have something usable. On Jul 20, 2013, at 1:07 PM, "Kevin H.
