no, I did not touch any other package.

Regardless of the ovirt builds
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5/rpm/fc*/
vdsm is built as part of any Fedora release and should be fully
operational. The only problem is the amount of testing - and here you
are most welcome to assist: yum install vdsm on your f21, and see if it
flies. If you find a problem (be it a missing mom version or an
operational bug) please report it here on on bugzilla.
