Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.01-3 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
Install sarge and kernel-image-2.6-686-smp, change sources.list to point to unstable, dist-upgrade. LVM2 will not install since it does not support kernels < 2.6.12. BTW, this breaks policy (no upgrade-path from sarge to etch, assuming this version of lvm2 ever gets to etch - this bug should prevent this). Kernel-image-2.6.15-1-686-smp has now been installed and system works fine, except that when I do another upgrade, it now pulls the new lvm2 into place and after that it's not bootable. LVM2 no longer finds its volume groups. Please bear in mind that the system has its root on LVM2, to its really not usable at all. -Juha P.S. I'm sorry if this bug really belongs to kernel image and not lvm2. I asked debian-devel for an opinion on which one should get the bug report, but got no reply. The fact that both old LVM2 and new kernel and new LVM2 and old kernel (where new=sid, old=etch) work makes me unsure which one is at fault. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686-smp Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages lvm2 depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.68 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.5-12.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdevmapper1.02 2:1.02.02-1 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.1-5 GNU readline and history libraries ii libselinux1 1.28-2 SELinux shared libraries ii lvm-common 1.5.20 The Logical Volume Manager for Lin lvm2 recommends no packages. -- debconf information: * lvm2/kernel: lvm2/snapshots: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
