indeed it is up to the maintainer to assess severity. considering the use case the *one* unbootable box is of course bad for the user in question but in comparison to thousands of others that are working aboves severity is inflated. also it is already quite some time since lenny was released if aboves is an repeatable bug it would already have touched others. > > legacylvm is only there for upgrade from etch to lenny > > which doesn't work due to this bug no, again the error is not on initramfs-tools side as legacylvm has nothing todo with encrypted root. all those hook scripts are in the hand of the cryptsetup maintainers. > > any trouble beyond should be solved in the lvm2 boot hook itself. > > the upgrade process does not install lvm2 well i haver zero idea why your box didn't have lvm2 installed, nor did you provide info why it wasn't? > but whatever, i'll just blog about the issue and your great call not to > bother fixing the clear bug which broke the etch->lenny upgrade for me > even when given a patch... whatever you feel apropriate. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
