Applications like kpartx and cryptsetup were broken by moving only libdevicemapper itself into a separate package: as a result of that change, lvm2 was not getting pulled into images anymore although libdevicemapper depends on dmsetup and udev rules to be fully functional.
For example, "kpartx -as" started to hang while waiting for the udev rules to trigger, which is what creates the /dev/mapper/ entries for the new partitions (see also https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/22025#issuecomment-243943728). Putting udev rules and dmsetup also into libdevicemapper is perhaps counter-intuitive, but necessary to keep the package functioning. A full lvm2 installation is guaranteed to pull them in, too, both because of implicit library dependencies and (just to be sure) an explicit RDEPENDS. lvm2-native doesn't have packages, so this RDEPENDS must be limited to the target case.
