Synopsis

libqb bug fix and enhancement update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated libqb packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The libqb packages provide a library with the primary purpose of providing high performance client server reusable features, such as high performance logging, tracing, inter-process communication, and polling.

The libqb packages have been upgraded to upstream version 0.16.0, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. One of the notable changes fixes a bug in the qb_log_from_external_source() function, that caused the Pacemaker's policy engine to terminate unexpectedly. The engine now works as expected. (BZ#1001491)

Users of libqb are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs and add these enhancements.
