Comment (by jfrieben@…):
There is still a problem leading to a linker error for the final executable already reported at
http://lists.einsteintoolkit.org/pipermail/users/2014-August/003755.html :
.. /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lnuma /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lltdl ..
hwloc actually needs numactl-devel. The hwloc configure script does not ensure that libnuma.* is installed. The second (unrelated) error was resolved on my system by installing libtool-tdl-devel. Please open a new ticket for these minor issues if you see fit to do so, thanks. Btw, on recent systems, there is a move towards using shared libraries alone; therefore, queries similar to 'grep ... lib*.la' found in the build system will only fail more often in the future.
