lvm2create_initrd, which is installed by sys-fs/lvm2, needs MAKEDEV to run, but this isn't pulled in. Also, MAKEDEV has moved from /usr/sbin to /sbin. Reproducible: Always

Created attachment 300771 [details, diff] lvm2create_initrd patch...fixes path to MAKEDEV
makedev is only needed for the initrd tool, which came from upstream contrib. agk: with the /usr mount need, the initrd doesn't do it, maybe drop it from LVM2 entirely?
I also encountered this problem. It should definitely be resolved. The proposals by Scott seem logical to me.
The directory was already /sbin/MAKEDEV instead of /usr/sbin/ in LVM2 2.02.99 so what was left is creating USE="lvm2create_initrd" and putting sys-apps/makedev behind it and only install the script then and that's done in version 2.02.99-r1 in portage now
