lvm2 includes device-mapper, and there is no flag to disable device-mapper in udisks, therefore lvm2 is really required even with --disable-lvm2 It does seem a bit strange, but why can't you have device-mapper without lvm? (In reply to comment #2) > It does seem a bit strange, but why can't you have device-mapper without lvm? Because device-mapper/lvm2 upstream merged device-mapper as part of lvm2 package. And we are not in business of countering upstreams decisions, as in, we don't split packages unless it's for solving circular dependencies or such. You could try to contact lvm2 upstream and try to make them split device-mapper into it's own package... but honestly, I don't think it's worth it. |
