Description Thomas Backlund 2019-07-04 20:37:16 CEST

I hit this problem on a server here where I have / on lvm2, and it failed to boot since lvm was not added to initrd ;/

(dracut lvm module depends on dracut dm module that depends on dmsetup being available)


Advisory:
Updated lvm2 packages adds missing dependency

On a system that uses lvm2 we need to ensure that dmsetup is installed.
Without it lvm2 wont get added to initrd, causing the system to fail
to boot if root is on lvm. 
This update adds the dependency on dmsetup, ensuring the system boots
as intended.

For testers, simply install lvm2 from release (and check that you dont have dmsetup installed), then install lvm2 from testing and it should pull in dmsetup

Comment 1 Len Lawrence 2019-07-05 09:51:02 CEST

Have just checked the status of these packages and find that both lvm2 and dmsetup are installed.  

$ rpm -qa | grep lvm2
lib64lvm2app2.2-2.02.183-1.mga7
lib64lvm2cmd2.02-2.02.183-1.mga7
lvm2-2.02.183-1.mga7
$ rpm -qa | grep dmsetup
dmsetup-1.02.154-1.mga7

An attempt at removing dmsetup offered to remove most of my Mate installation as well so that is a no-go.

Is there any way to get rid of dmsetup just by itself?

Comment 2 Thomas Backlund 2019-07-05 10:21:07 CEST

Ah, yeah it seems almost every DE has deps that to pull it in, so this is more an issue on clean server installs...

You can remove a package with:

rpm -e --nodeps <package_name>

so in this case: rpm -e --nodeps dmsetup

Comment 3 Len Lawrence 2019-07-05 16:03:30 CEST

Thanks Thomas - what a newbie - I was using urpmi --nodeps.

Comment 4 Len Lawrence 2019-07-05 16:11:03 CEST

$ rpm -qa | egrep "dmsetup|lvm2"
lib64lvm2app2.2-2.02.183-1.mga7
lib64lvm2cmd2.02-2.02.183-1.mga7
lvm2-2.02.183-1.mga7

# urpmi lvm2
To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed:
  Package                        Version      Release       Arch    
(medium "Core Updates Testing")
  dmsetup                        1.02.154     1.1.mga7      x86_64

  lvm2                           2.02.183     1.1.mga7      x86_64  

That worked fine.  OK for 64 bits.
