Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.111-2 Followup-For: Bug #688789 I recently had the same problem with lvcreate / lvremove. I assumed a bug in the source and went looking to fix it.
I learned from a source comment (lib/commands/toolcontext.c:183) that there is the -qq option for extra quietness disables the spurious output from lvcreate and lvremove. The manpage for LVM suggests that repeating -q will "also suppress any prompts with answer 'no'", which doesn't seem to match this case. I still consider it a bug that this output is not removed by --quiet, but that's for the Debian maintainers to decide; in the meantime, I hope that documenting this workaround will help those who find the original bug report after discovering this behaviour. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages lvm2 depends on: ii dmeventd 2:1.02.90-2 ii dmsetup 2:1.02.90-2 ii init-system-helpers 1.22 ii initscripts 2.88dsf-58 ii libc6 2.19-13 ii libdevmapper-event1.02.1 2:1.02.90-2 ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.90-2 ii libreadline5 5.2+dfsg-2 ii libudev1 215-7 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian13+nmu1 lvm2 recommends no packages.
