Brian, there used to be two hwloc.h : the one from the hwloc libraries, and the one from the OMPI MCA framework. as a side effect, we could not --with-hwloc=external, but we had to --with-hwloc=/usr, which leads to add -I/usr/include to the CPPFLAGS. so you might end up having CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include -I/.../internal_libevent/include ... which means that if libevent is also installed in /usr, you do not use the internal libevent as you expected.
Jeff avoided this scenario by having the option to rename the framework header file (e.g. opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc.h was moved to hwloc-internal.h), so --with-hwloc=external works now, and there is no more -I/usr/include in the CPPFLAGS i am not sure we can run into this issue with libevent nor pmix since their base component do not need to #include the external pmix.h nor event.h note this is not 100% bulletproof yet if you have both hwloc and libevent in /opt/include and /opt/lib, you have to --with-hwloc=/opt and you will likely use the external libevent too Cheers, Gilles On Thu, Apr 6, 2017 at 3:59 AM, r...@open-mpi.org <r...@open-mpi.org> wrote: > It could be that a fairly recent change was made to fix that conflict.
