sys-fs/udev-146-r1 got marked stable and requires sys-fs/device-mapper to not be installed on the system. Programs that directly require device-mapper include the latest version of: app-crypt/truecrypt sys-apps/parted sys-block/gparted sys-boot/lilo sys-fs/clvm sys-fs/cryptsetup sys-fs/dmraid sys-fs/evms sys-fs/lvm2 sys-fs/multipath-tools Second level dependancies (where my personal problems are) for cryptsetup include the following when using the crypt flag: app-crypt/luks-tools sys-apps/hal sys-apps/pmount sys-auth/pam_mount sys-kernel/dracut My personal problem lies in hal not working with the crypt flag and unable to mount encrypted drives. The biggest issue is that cryptsetup and truecrypt can't install anymore which basically means we don't want any encryption at all. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.update to stable sys-fs/udev-146-r1 2.see it block sys-fs/device-mapper 3.install anything from the first list or install anything from the second list with crypt useflag Actual Results: blocks on device-mapper requirement or improperly installs and scream when you emerge --deep --update --newuse world -a Expected Results: sys-fs/cryptsetup et al need updated dependancies if sys-fs/device-mapper is no longer used This has to be affecting people with full disk encryption because of cryptsetup being broken. It all affect truecrypt users. Basically anything with a crypt use flag is broken.
I have full disk encryption and on top of this a lvm2. But I think I can uptade my system because my initrd image will continue to have an older (not broken) version of cryptsetup and lvm2, so I will still be able do boot but I won't be able to generate new initrd images, am I right?
When bug 287658 is resolved, so is this bug. Everything works fine if you mark =sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.51-r1 stable. For some reason the ebuild is marked stable but portage doesn't want to install it until I add it to /etc/portage/package.keywords
I think at least two problems are raised in this bug: - one of them is INVALID: device-mapper has been merged upstream into lvm2, which now provides both - the other one (initrd) is probably a duplicate of bug 292833, but that one seems to affect only genkernel users Please confirm.
As for comment 2: those versions of udev and lvm2 are both stable on x86 and both unstable on amd64. Is everything all right with your portage tree ?
I am also getting a blocker: $ emerge -pvuDN world These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

About comment 5: of course, you're getting a blocker: try 'emerge -pvuDN world lvm2' (IIRC, should work, just be sure lvm2 wont get needlessly added to world).
It still fails since "sys-fs/device-mapper" is blocking sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.51-r1 :-/: # emerge -pvuDN world lvm2 These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Well, sorry a lot, simply "emerge -C device-mapper && emerge -uDN world" works, as lvm2 uses a "!!" blocker instead of "!" (then, blocker is not automatically resolved) Sorry
Yes, comment #8 solves the problem for me too. emerge world will pull in lvm2 after device-mapper is gone.
This blocker resolution should've made it into 'eselect news'. I had no idea device-mapper would become provided by lvm2. However, as stated here: emerge -C device-mapper && emerge -1 lvm2 ... seems to fix the problem and allow normal updating.
i can confirm that a simple emerge -C device-mapper && emerge -DuN device-mapper solves the problem for me and would like to see this in eselect news as well. it's not fun to search around some bug reports to find out what's going on. "this is not a bug. you just dont know that device-mapper has been merged into lvm2." <-- where should i know that from? btw, the folowing did not work for me emerge -C device-mapper && emerge -1av lvm2 because: [ebuild U ] sys-apps/util-linux-2.16.1 [2.14.2] USE="crypt nls perl%* unicode -loop-aes -old-linux (-selinux) -slang (-uclibc)" 3,408 kB [ebuild N ] sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.51-r1 USE="lvm1 readline static (-clvm) (-cman) (-selinux)" 772 kB [blocks B ] <sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.41.8 ("<sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.41.8" is blocking sys-apps/util-linux-2.16.1) [blocks B ] <sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.8 ("<sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.8" is blocking sys-apps/util-linux-2.16.1)

Dumb question - is there a minimum kernel version required to update to this new version of lvm2? For reasons I don't want to go into, I'm stuck on an old 2.6.23 kernel for the time being, but I'd like to go ahead and get lvm2 updated so it stops showing up as a blocker when I upgrade world... Thanks...
(In reply to comment #13) > Dumb question - is there a minimum kernel version required to update to this > new version of lvm2? Oh... and I'm on an older version of udev too - 141 to be specific - will this need to be updated as well when updating lvm2? I do have approval to upgrade the kernel/udev and everything else sometime fairly soon, just not right now, so want to be sure updating lvm2 will still work ok with the older kernel/udev versions I'm at... Thanks again...
