I am running into the same thing. I'm updating everything else then
going to tackle this. In theory, you have to unmerge device-mapper then
let it update. Something like:
emerge -C device-mapper emerge -uvDN world
That's my plan at least. Unless someone else posts a better one.

I'm not sure if it would boot with the old lvm2 and without device-mapper, probably yes, but I did not want to take any risk.

You don't have to use lvm2 just because you merged it, it simply contains some tools you use. It's a case of the ebuild package being larger than you strictly need. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com

Hal's (and by the looks of it, pmount's) use of the crypt use flag pulls in cryptsetup, and in turn, all its dependencies. If you're not using cryptsetup, just put sys-apps/hal -crypt into your package.use list, and if you use pmount as well, the equivalent for it. That should drop any dependency on cryptsetup, and if cryptsetup's the only thing pulling in lvm2 (and previously device-mapper), that'll no longer be depended on either. -- Poison [BLX] Joshua M.
