[linux-lvm] compile error: 'DMEVENTD_PATH' undeclared

[Oliver Rath <rath@mglug.de>]

Hi list,

if i compile lvm2 (from today) with this configure:


./configure --with-thin=internal --with-cache=internal
--with-replicators=internal --enable-udev_sync --enable-udev_rules


then the following occures:
.
.
.
make -C lib
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/lvm2/lib'
gcc -c -I. -I../include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DDM_IOCTLS -Wall -Wundef

(not in a function)
make[1]: *** [config/config.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/lvm2/lib'
make: *** [lib] Error 2
.
.


if i take
./configure --with-thin=internal --with-cache=internal
--with-replicators=internal --enable-udev_sync --enable-udev_rules
--enable-cmdlib --enable-dmeventd


all compiles fine. But I dont know, what dmevetd-flag is good for. Do i
run into problems on a Ubuntu 12.04, if i enable additionally
--enable-cmdlib --enable-dmeventd
  before installing?

Tfh!

Oliver
