libqb has no maintainer, so assigning this globally.

Comment 4 Len Lawrence 2020-01-23 20:41:27 CET

Mageia7, x86_64

This looks quite difficult to set up.  It is a development environment apparently which requires certain files to copied from source to /etc/corosync.  There is no config file provided out of the box, not even a template so this may take a while to figure out.  It is highly probable that this shall result in "failure to launch", in which case it goes back on the conveyor belt.

Comment 5 Len Lawrence 2020-01-23 20:43:39 CET

Oops, I missed out the the basics.  libqp0 is used by corosync and pacemaker, neither of which are familiar, hence my scepticism.

Comment 6 Len Lawrence 2020-01-25 00:22:35 CET

As agreed at the last QA meeting this should be passed on the basis of a clean update.
