Hi,

I've prepared a NMU for lvm that fixes #603036: "lvm2: fails to install
due to incorrect dependencies in init.d LSB header"

The bug is tagged squeeze-ignore:

I'm just adding the udev dependency to the lvm2 package, not touching
the initscript (which has been updated for wheezy to make udev
optional). This just makes the current situation (udev has to be
installed for lvm to work) explicit.

This bug is a bit annoying for piuparts because we need to work around
this for lvm2 and its rdepends, therefore I'd like to see this fixed.

If this request is confirmed, I'll go looking for a sponsor.

PS: I just noticed, the version should probably be 2.02.66-5+squeeze1

That final update has now happened, so we can no longer update packages
in squeeze (other than via -lts); I'm going to close this bug now.
