I compared your .srpm with the one I created for mandrake. There where only minor differences(*), but I noticed you removed dependence on the local lvm.h, while I don't use linux/lvm.h any more. I think it's better not to use linux/lvm.h because kernel headers may belong to an older kernel version without lvm support. (Linus said on linux-kernel that he prefers that /usr/include/linux and /usr/src/linux are of the kernel version used when glibc was compiled) On mandrake, the standard kernel doesn't support lvm, but on 7.2 it will probably be possible to install a 2.4 kernel optionally. linux/lvm.h will not be available at build time. What do you think? Jan (*) I did miss some minor bugfixes, and I'll upload an updated SRPM, soon.
