  If I read your OIDs correctly, .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.13.16.2.1.3 simply
identifies lmTempSensorsValue, of which there may be more than one
Gauge32 instance on any particular host.

  Apparently, your two installations simply map CPU temperature to
different underlying indices.  What does your Fedora host issue for
lmTempSensorsValue.1 through .9 ?

  There's no guarantee that different operating systems map the same
datum to the same OID when there may be multiple entries.  Particularly
when you're running different kernels and sensor implementations.

  I see no problem here.
