6 Thanks for the reply.

8 Ok, versions in use:
9
10 lvm2-2.02.10
11 mdadm-2.6.4-r1
12 udev-104-r12
13
14 I've masked updates to an versions after those above. Emerge wants to
15 upgrade to the following:
16
17 lvm2-2.02.28-r2
18 udev-119
19
20 mdadm doesn't actually want to be upgraded so it must be a problem with one of
21 those two packages.
22
23 All I know is when I do a world update, my lvm dies and I have to reinstall or
24 go through a painful downgrade procedure.

29 I haven't but that's because no-one else has reported problems like this, and
30 I can work out why its affecting me in enough detail. I don't want to submit
31 a but report unless I can back it up with some useful information.
