[packaging] Who packages LVM2 for Manjaro

[packaging] Who packages LVM2 for Manjaro

[DeCay]

Hello!

     I have a question regarding LVM package for Manjaro Linux. Are you 
involved in packaging ?

     lvmdbusd is missing on my system and I want to understand why. I 
started from the Manjaro forum: 
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/no-lvmdbusd-binary-in-lvm2-package/175096

     I was told to look at the package's URL, which is 
https://sourceware.org/lvm2/. I think that it's just a project's site 
and it's not related to the packaging process in any way.

     The packager (Christian Hesse <eworm@archlinux.org>) doesn't 
response either.

The packager is Arch Linux developer and not involved with Manjaro,
thus not interested in registering in that forum to discuss.

I didn't want anyone to register there, just trying to figure why the 
binary isn't there and how to contribute.
Anyways, here's the answer:

Feel free to expand if some vital details are missing.

The thread isn't for the mailing list from this point, I think.

To configure build of lvm2 with DBus & Notify support add these 2 configure 
options:  --enable-dbus-service --enable-notify-dbus

Python is required (and checked for) to build lvmdbusd  (as this daemon is 
currently written in this language).

Yep, I've already built a version for testing using the 2 flags.

I found that the build process requires python 3+, pyudev and dbus 
python packages.

I guess that runtime deps are the same.
