--- Begin Message ---Package: liblinux-lvm-perl Version: 0.13-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable The attached perl code causes output like the following: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Finding volume group "FILE" Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 324. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 230. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 231. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 324. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 230. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 231. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 324. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 230. Use of uninitialized value in hash element at Linux/LVM.pm line 231. $VAR1 = { '' => { 'status' => 'allocatable', 'free_pe' => '40090', 'total_pe' => '103090' } }; ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Obtained using the following perl script, doing only parts of what the example in the man page shows and what should thus be feasible: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Linux::LVM; use Data::Dumper; # get the existing volume groups foreach my $vg (get_volume_group_list()) { my %pv_info = get_physical_volume_information($vg); print Dumper \%pv_info; } ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Clearly, the line-by-line parser doesn't work as expected: - It refers to unset variables repeatedly because the respective value is not known _yet_ - My volume group _does_ have a name (FILE), but this is never stored in the hash - The physical volume output is missing the device information As the sole purpose of this package is taking the burden of parsing the vgdisplay output off of the user, it becomes useless. Apparently, a rewrite is planned (see #460604), and I guess the package should not be part of Lenny unless this happens. Thanks, Michael
