[Bug 1747411] Re: Change of default database file format to SQL

 

For corosync the affected components are corosync-qnetd.

I checked and without adaption on install they would be fine as they
initialize a new DB and nowhere does anyone specify the type. But as
with some other tools on an upgrade we have to assume that the old DBM
format will be tried to be read as SQL and then fail.

Worth to notice is that Fedora who started all of this in [1] in their
NSS build still uses DBM as default :-)

corosync 2.4.4-1 of 20th of April made corosync compatible with the nss change.
They prefix all calls with dbm to stay compat until the upgrade is handled by upstream.
So a merge of this or latter version will address this for corosync.
Afterwards nss can be merged dropping the change of the default.

Bug description:
  nss in version 3.35 in upstream changed [2] the default file format [1] (if no explicit one is specified).
  For now we reverted that change in bug 1746947 until all packages depending on it are ready to work with that correctly.

  This bug here is about to track when the revert can be dropped.
  Therefore we list all known-to-be-affected packages and once all are resolved this can be dropped.
