Description Dominique Tronche 2021-06-15 06:32:21 UTC

With commit 3cdbe916, the default value of package BR2_PACKAGE_LVM2_STANDARD_INSTALL has been changed. 
I'm not sure this was the wanted behavior. 

Indeed in the commit the package was introduced (ff0f55e3), it was written "the new option defaults to y *UNLESS* the legacy BR2_PACKAGE_LVM2_DMSETUP_ONLY was selected"
Now that the legacy package is obsolete, the default shall be y in all cases. 
I think most people requires the standard installation of lvm2, otherwise it would not really be standard.

I have set the severity to major as this change has broken our installation since the lvm2 binaries were not compiled anymore and all scripts that required lvm manipulation failed

Dominique, All,

Thanks for the report.

We believe that was fixed with commit 6d758f59e6 (package/lvm2: default
standard install to y) submitted by Arnout.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
