[Debian-ha-maintainers] Bug#768922: Bug#768618: Bug#768922: Bug#768618: pacemaker: FTBFS in jessie: build-dependency not installable: libqb-dev (>= 0.16.0.real)

[Raoul Bhatia]

I'd also like to know how to get involved on that.

I currently see two possibilities:

a) address the important, release critical bugs.
However, ideally would need someone of the old maintainers/uploaders 
(added as CC) to sponsor that.

b) See if a quick backport will be possible after the release.

What do you think?
