** Description changed: - I started up a precise/netboot install using debian- - installer_20101020ubuntu136 and disk-detect/multipath/enable=true and - found that multipath support didn't appear to be working. That is to - say, both paths appeared as separate disks in the installer, and no - device-mapper devices were instantiated. + [SRU Justification] + multipath no workie, see the original description + + [Regression Potential] + In theory, multipath suddenly working again could be surprising to people who have worked around it being broken for so long. This seems unlikely. + + [Test case] + Boot a d-i install with disk-detect/multipath/enable=true, and once the udebs + have been installed, drop to a shell and try to run 'multipath' to see if it explodes with a symbol resolution error. Ideally it won't. + + [Original report] + I started up a precise/netboot install using debian-installer_20101020ubuntu136 and disk-detect/multipath/enable=true and found that multipath support didn't appear to be working. That is to say, both paths appeared as separate disks in the installer, and no device-mapper devices were instantiated. I dropped to a shell and discovered that /sbin/multipath fails to run: BusyBox v1.18.5 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.5-1ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. ~ # multipath multipath: symbol lookup error: /lib/libmultipath.so.0: undefined symbol: dlopen Note: this also seems to be the case in oneiric, though oneiric also has a bug where it does not appear to have the dm-multipath module available at install time.
