I'm thinking of trying LVM on one of my Etch machines and I look for$ COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l |grep -i lvm
packages in the Etch repository. I see clvm, lvm-common, lvm2, and the
virtual package, lvm-binaries. Looks easy, but the text description
for lvm-common contains the following:
<quote> ... You need to install in addition one of lvm5, lvm6, or
lvm10.
</quote>
There are no such packages in the repository. I suppose lvm2 is the
successor to all these packages, and the description is simply out
of date, but I'd like confirmation before I do something the might
turn out to be a big mistake.
ii lvm-common 1.5.20 The Logical Volume Manager for Linux (common files)
ii lvm2 2.02.06-4 The Linux Logical Volume Manager
Everything works like a charm here. If you install lvm2, it will pull
in lvm-common as a dependency.
If you upgrade to SID, lvm-common conflicts with lvm2. From what I
understand, this is intentional as lvm1(any version) is to be dropped.
Though lvm2 can deal with lvm1 stuff, I believe it want so update the
meta to v2.
