<p>Hello!</p>
<p>Trying to install the Einstein toolkit on a new machine, we came across this seemingly wrong behaviour:</p>
<p>setting HWLOC=BUILD in the optionlist, the ET is built with the bundled hwloc successfully.</p>
<p>However, upon building the utilities, it gives an error when it tries to copy hwloc-ls from /usr/bin to /exe/sim </p>
<p>The error results from hwloc-ls being a broken symlink in the system, but the weird thing is that it actually copies the executables from /usr/bin when we have actually built hwloc using the bundled version. </p>
<p>The same behaviour can also be seen here, where some hwloc executables are copied from /usr/bin, while others are copied from the hwloc bundle:</p>
