In example08, after the 1st iteration the eigenvalues are:

spin  1
    eigenvalues:
  0.987  0.987  0.997  0.997  0.999
spin  2
    eigenvalues:
  0.200  0.200  0.335  0.335  0.384


The non-degenerate eigenvalue is the 5th one (spin 2) and not the 3rd one. 
That's why in QE7.1 it was corrected to the 5th one while in QE6.7 it was not 
correct. I presume that in the old versions of the code it was the 3rd one, but 
then since the code evolves a lot, there were some changes and the example was 
not updated.

Subject: [QE-users] different eigenvalues results for PW/example08 in QE7.1 and 
QE6.7

Dear QE Developers,

Hi.
I noticed that in example08 of PW (DFT+U applied for FeO), the eigenvalues in 
iteration 1 are different depending on using QE-6.7 or Qe-7.1. For example, in 
QE-6.7 the non-degenerate eigenvalue is for m=0, (the third one) while it is 
for m=2 (the fifth one) in QE-7.1.
But the final results for E_tot are similar.
I would highly appreciate if somebody please provide comments on this issue.

With best regards,
