Comment (by eschnett):

 The tarball flesh-Cactus.tar.gz should contain the thorn list and related
 files directly in a directory "configs"; if it is hidden in a subdirectory
 called "home/...", it will be difficult to find. Note that the leading
 slash of "/home/sbrandt" has been removed by tar, so that untarring the
 tarball will create a directory hierarchy that originally didn't even
 exist...

 This is not specific to hwloc; many other thorns do the same. You probably
 only see the error in hwloc since you either don't build the other thorns,
 or would build them after hwloc. I assume that CACTUS_CONFIGS_DIR needs to
 be an absolute path.

 Why did you just close this ticket?
