[Bug 1847806] Re: eoan: ppc64el install on pseries-eoan VM fails to install

[Frank Heimes]

Yes, that was the background - we wanted to know if the new instructions were in glibc 2.30 and/or glibc 2.31 or not.
First to adjust the status of that ticket accordingly,
second to push another ticket (if needed) that discusses the upgrade to glibc 2.31 in focal.

Qemu 4.2 recently arrived in focal.

So in other words - and thx to your clarification - we are good on that
for focal!
