Right, and I didn't noticed it as I rewrote this part to have devfspv_devices 
initialized before.

Don't be too quick to review it as I'm completely rewriting this. I am not 
satisfied with this former patch as it is too restrictive : there will always 
be one VG on your system after partman-auto-lvm has applied the recipe, and 
it may be useful to have more than this.

I finished writing the patch, but it needs a little more polishing : I must 
still read some docs about the error management with debconf (actually errors 
in my code are either silently ignored if they are not fatal or cause 
an "exit 1"). After this, I must still validate that I didn't broke anything 
in the handling of default recipes. So don't expect anything before one week, 
if everything goes as planned. Which never happens, but who knows ?
