Actually i took a closer look at this and wrote a patch that fixes it
for me.
It is attached with this mail.
It filters partitions using 'in_vg{' when computing min_size in
choose_recipe() and using method 'lvm'.
I saw that min_size() is used in some other places in partman, that's
the reason i put the filter in choose_recipe():
The recipe is still the same, we only modify the $scheme used by
min_size() for this particular check.
For all i know and understand about d-i, this shouldn't affect anything
other than this bug.
I'm not used to making patches for debian packages, much less for the
installer, so that may not be the _right_ way to do it, just tell me
and i'll find the time to modify my patch. Anyway, it works for me.diff -Nru partman-auto-137/debian/changelog partman-auto-137+nmu1/debian/changelog
