Hi Sven!  Thanks for bringing this up.  You have stumbled upon our
completely broken mom build process in oVirt.  Part of the problem
stems from the fact that MOM is a standalone package (available in
upstream Fedora) which is being rebuilt by oVirt.  The Fedora releases
have typically been much slower than the oVirt releases (and different
people are doing each).  Here's what we are doing to fix the issues:
 - Fix the MOM build system (merged)
 - Create branches in the MOM repo for ovirt releases (in progress)
 - I will be taking responsibility for oVirt releases of MOM in
   addition to the Fedora package itself.

These changes should lead to a normalized release process for MOM and
ensure that built packages for all supported oVirt releases will be
made available on resources.ovirt.org.

Up until very recently, all MOM development has been done in a single
branch.  As a workaround for your issue you can build your own rpm
from git (use the v0.3.2-stable tag) or grab this [1] nightly build.

Sorry for all of the confusion!
