Package: lvm2
Version: 2.03.02-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I upgraded one of my systems from stretch to buster today, and it failed to
complete booting afterwards, dropping to the (initramfs) prompt.

The cause is that only two of the logical volumes in my volume group - those
for / and /boot - are active on boot, and no action is seemingly taken to
activate the remainder, leading to /usr not being found.

Running vgchange -a y or vgchange -ay, then Ctrl-D, allows the system to
continue booting. However, this action will be needed on every reboot until
a permanent workaround, or a fix, is found.

I expected my system to boot normally, as it did before the upgrade, especially
as there was nothing in the release notes to advise me of this problem.
