seemant has the same problem too.

[Comment 3 Brandon Low (RETIRED) 2003-03-03 19:47:33 UTC]

I dunno... I'm looking into it now... already verified that I was using the correct version of EVMS patch in the kernels...

[Comment 4 Bob Johnson (RETIRED) 2003-03-04 07:05:40 UTC]

This is a evms problem, its a non-fatal error thats confusing ppl.
Evms devs suggest removing /lib/evms/libe2fsim.1.2.1.so
should be fixed next version of evms

Well the recommended version for the 2.4.20 kernel and the 2.5.46+ kernels is evms-1.9.0 which is a pretty radical departure from the previous EVMS. It is slated to become EVMS 2.0. I've already written an ebuild that seems to work on my system.
