The hsqldb package creates a symlink /var/lib/hsqldb/lib/hsqldb.jar -> hsqldb.jar It should be var/lib/hsqldb/lib/hsqldb.jar -> /usr/share/java/hsqldb.jar As it is, it prevents the service from starting.
Sorry, that should have been The hsqldb package creates a symlink /var/lib/hsqldb/lib/hsqldb.jar -> hsqldb.jar It should be /var/lib/hsqldb/lib/hsqldb.jar -> /usr/share/java/hsqldb.jar

I've confirmed this update fixes the broken symlink, now allowing the hsqldb service to be started. I haven't figured out yet, how to test that the server actually works. Accessing a database in libreoffice doesn't use hsql (confirmed by running libreoffice under strace). I'm inclined to accept this update, as it fixes the reported bug, once it's confirmed to also work on x86-64. The srpm is hsqldb-1.8.1.3-4.1.mga1.src.rpm
Confirmed on x86_64 the symlink is fixed. On creating a new database in libreoffice-base the text 'HSQL Database Engine' appears at the bottom of the window, but libreoffice does not care if the hsqldb service is running or not.

Can someone from the sysadmin team push the srpm hsqldb-1.8.1.3-4.1.mga1.src.rpm Core Update Testing to Core Updates. Advisory: This update fixes a broken symlink, that prevented the hsqldb service from starting.
