Mageia8, x86_64

Installed the release version of the package and qgis which is the only major package which depends on it.  qgis appears to be a framework for the development of specialised web based maps and services involving geolocation and other resources.

The qgis interface launched OK.
Updated the package and checked qgis again.
It launches and shows a news panel and a template panel from which new projects can be developed.

There is little more that can be done with this without a wider knowledge of the subject but it looks useable.  Giving this the go-ahead.
