Hi

When I install VDO tools version 8.3.1.1 on Debian Sid and I run the LVM 
testsuite, I get failure in these tests:

shell/lvchange-vdo.sh
shell/lvconvert-thin-from-thick.sh
shell/lvconvert-thin-vdo.sh
shell/lvconvert-vdo-raid.sh
shell/lvcreate-vdo.sh
shell/profiles-vdo.sh
shell/vgsplit-vdo.sh

There are these syslog messages:

When I use the version 8.3.0.73 on Fedora Rawhide, VDO tests don't fail. 

Do you have some idea how to debug it and why is it failing with the "A 
logical size of 584704 blocks was specified, but that differs the 584729 
blocks" message?
