Mandriva Advisories

Package name lvm2
Date March 15th, 2005
Advisory ID MDKA-2005:014-1
Affected versions 10.0, CS3.0
Synopsis Updated lvm2 packages fix symlink recursion problem

Problem Description

A bug in the lvm2 packages caused it to recurse symlinked directories
indefinitely which caused lvm commands to be really slow or timeout. A
patch has been applied to correct this problem.

Update:

The previous update was mistakenly built for 10.1 rather than 10.0 and
Corporate 3.0 as it should have been. This update provides the correct
packages.

To upgrade automatically, use MandrivaUpdate.


Verification

Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of the downloaded package. You can do this with the command :

                rpm --checksig package.rpm
                

You can get the GPG public key of the Mandriva Security Team to verify the GPG signature of each RPM.

If you use MandrivaUpdate, the verification of md5 checksum and GPG signature is performed automatically for you.
