The problem is that the current version which is in the package is the
old version of the patch, instead of the one that has been improved
during the GSoC last year. The current version needs libgeom, while the
improved version doesn't need it.

The versions 1.8.8 were using the improved version, while the versions
2.2 have switched back to the original version, which introduced back a
few bugs, especially with SCSI drives.

You can find the improved version of this patched, ported for 2.2 at
