configuration details [was Re: vgrename omit renaming hidden volumes if vg is inactive -> thinpools will be inconsistent]

[Oliver Rath <rath@mglug.de>]

Hi Peter,

lvm2 was compiled in this way:

 ./configure \
      --with-thin=internal \
      --with-replicators=internal \
      --enable-udev_sync \
      --enable-udev_rules \
      --enable-python-bindings \
      --enable-applib \
      --enable-cmdlib 

make && make install

Regards
Oliver
