the problem; the other issue was that using the "desktop" variant
didn't actually install all of the ros packages that I needed, so I
used the combination of roslocate + rosinstall to install the rest of
them. And the software is now running! Hooray!
Thanks for all your help. I look forward to seeing ROS packages
appearing in Fedora at some point.

Hi Mary, Rich,
Would you folks have an srpm uploaded somewhere with the patch that I
could use please? I tried patching up the srpm from fedora git, but the
patch fails somehow. Any chance you documented what additional packages
you needed to install to get your stuff working Mary?
Rich, there are two patches at the ticket[1]. Which one do you suggest I
use? Would you remember what version it was generated against? It fails
against both the 1.6 release tar from upstream and the source in fedora
git (which I expect must be the same).
I've been updating the ros wiki page on Fedora installs[2] as I go along
so it might help others.
This is my spec currently[3]. I might make the rpm available on
fedorapeople for folks who want to use ros once I get it to build
correctly.
