Hello, I've been looking more closely inside the package, and the only mentions that I could find of dmsetup in lvm2 are lvmdump and udev rules. lvmdump is just debug (and handles a missing dmsetup gracefully). udev rules are responsible for handling /dev stuff. I currently don't use udev and my /dev is statically populated, so these rules aren't helpful to me anyway, right?
What if I remove the dmsetup dependency and rebuild the latest version of the package in unstable? It should continue working with no problem, won't it? Will I need dmsetup if I, say, create a new logical volume? Is lvm2 development currently directed towards more dynamic stuff with udev?
