Description Adam Williamson 2023-09-08 22:34:42 UTC
LVM tihn provisioning installs on Fedora 39 currently fail with an error like:

ERROR:anaconda.modules.storage.installation:Failed to create storage layout: Failed to call the 'LvCreate' method on the '/com/redhat/lvmdbus1/ThinPool/0' object: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Python.dbus.exceptions.DBusException: ('com.redhat.lvmdbus1.Lv', 'Exit code 5, stderr = Check of pool fedora_fedora/00 failed (status:64). Manual repair required!, Failed to activate thin pool fedora_fedora/00.')

this is fixed in Rawhide by device-mapper-persistent-data-1.0.6-2.fc40 , but that's not built for F39. Filing this bug as it would be nice to fix this for F39 Beta, as it's an install-time bug - I dunno how many people are doing thinp installs on ppc64le, but hey, if someone is, they'd be happy we fixed this...
