Public bug reported:
The postinst for lvm2 includes a call to vgcfgbackup; in the version
included in eoan 2.03.02-2ubuntu4 (and 2.03.02-2ubuntu3 before it), this
command takes several minutes to run when invoked in an schroot as
happens when a building a package with sbuild that ends up pulling lvm2
as part of its build dependency chain. An example package with lvm2 in
its build depends is rsnapshot, but this behavior was seen with a build
of glibc. Some notes:
- this behavior is NOT seen with the version of lvm2 in disco.
- this happens in bionic with a 4.15 kernel and disco with a 5.0 kernel
(different hosts, so different sets of block devices)
- this happens regardless of whether the host is currently using logical
volumes or not
Here's the time difference between running the disco version and the
eoan version:
