Package: util-linux
Version: 2.16-3
Severity: wishlist


"fdisk -l" creates a lot of spam when you have many logical volumes. If a
device-mapper managed virtual device does not contain a partition table, it
shouldn't bother printing junk like this:

Disk /dev/dm-27: 128.8 GB, 128849018880 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 15665 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000

Disk /dev/dm-27 doesn't contain a valid partition table


        Thanks,
                Tyler

Current versions no longer print the "Disk X doesn't contain a valid
partition table" message in this case.

I assume upstream has improved this.

Thanks,
Chris
