Hi Stephane, Have you looked at the following mail thread on the OSCAR-users mailing lists? http://www.mail-archive.com/oscar-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg06938.html
I think this may be the reason. And this is also mentioned on the release note. http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/InstallGuideReleaseNotes#a2.5.1Fedora789 So, don't try to install any packages (rpms) manually and use the remote distro repo as much as possible.
