Description robinetd 2010-04-22 16:25:45 UTC

With lvm2-2.02.63-r1 installed, while trying to install gparted or cryptsetup, I get an error regarding libdevmapper.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge =sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.63-r1
2. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge parted

Actual Results:  
The configure script fails with this: (This also happens with cryptsetup, or anything that uses devmapper.)

checking for dm_task_create in -ldevmapper... no
configure: error: libdevmapper could not be found, but is required for the
--enable-device-mapper option, which is enabled by default.  Either disable
device-mapper support with --disable-device-mapper or download and install


Expected Results:  
devmapper should be found and used.
