Public bug reported:

Installer version: 447
Kernel: 4.4.0.18
Description/Reproduction:
Logical Volumes that exist on multipathed SCSI disks from a previous 
installation are not automatically activated and thus can not be reused. Only 
the partitions are visible and that their type is "lvm" (s. screenshot). 

Workaround:

When the partitioned disks are shown in the "Partition disks" menu, open
a shell. Then list all logical volumes with command lvs, and set each
logical volume active with lvchange -ay <volumegroupname>/<lvolname>.
Choose "Configure the Logical Volume Manager", confirm keeping current
partition layout with "Yes"  and "Finish" without changing anything.
Then the Logical Volumes are displayed in the "Partition disks" menu and
filesystems can be created and mountpoints defined.

I will attach syslog and partman of the installation attempt.

So obviously an lvchange -ay on all detected lolgical volumes is missing
at the proper time....
