In fact, libvirt (and therefore redhat-cluster) has a very heavy dependency chain which I'm sure involves the lvm2 client libraries all over the place. Just to give another couple examples: libvirt also Build-Depends on libdevmapper-dev; and since libvirt0 gets a binary dependency on libdevmapper1.02.1, I'd say there's probably a good reason for that one. libvirt Build-Depends on libparted0-dev, and parted Build-Depends on libdevmapper-dev. -- Daniel Schepler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
