Description Karl Hakimian 2013-03-06 02:19:45 UTC

Zvols are not a recognized type for LVM so vgscan etc. don't find things in them

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. pvcreate /dev/zvol/...
Actual Results:  
Complains about zvol

Expected Results:  
create the pv.

This is a trivial one line patch to fix. So far, RedHat (the upstream maintainer) has ignored my submitted patch.

This patch looks good to me. Could we get this merged into our ebuilds and accepted upstream?
