FWIW, we've always bundled libevent -- ever since 1.0. It was made a little more obvious in 1.7 because we shifted some things around in the build system, but it's always been there. > Is there any work being done on allowing one to compile against an external > libevent library? We have not done this because OMPI is fairly tied to the specific version of libevent that is bundled. Given that OMPI has *always* bundled libevent, how terrible would it be to just let that continue? -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
