thanks Nish! I just installed that package:

[jk at fstn2-p1 sources.list.d]$ sudo apt-get remove --purge openipmi

Now I get:

[jk at fstn2-p1 sources.list.d]$ sudo service openipmi start
Job for openipmi.service failed. See "systemctl status openipmi.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
[jk at fstn2-p1 sources.list.d]$ systemctl status openipmi.service

But at least my modules are still loaded:

[jk at fstn2-p1 sources.list.d]$ lsmod | grep ipmi
ipmi_devintf           13227  0 
ipmi_powernv            5657  0 
ipmi_msghandler        51494  2 ipmi_powernv,ipmi_devintf
[jk at fstn2-p1 sources.list.d]$ 

.. which is a net improvement :)
