Was this it?

- Add sysfs filter patch
- Allow non-root users to build RPM
Yep. Took me a bit longer to do the testing than I'd planned, as I've
found a quagmire of unrelated problems getting root-on-LVM working
properly with dynamic majors and SELinux. But it's in rawhide now.
This failure mode is particularly bad when your root fs is in such
an
LVM device, and you just rebuilt all of your initrd images with the
new, ``fixed´´ lvm binary and without lvm.conf. But even if I run it
after booting from a working-lvm.conf initrd, if I run vgscan on the
running system without lvm.conf, it fails just the same (and it
scarily fails to complete)
Want me to bugzilla this?
Yes, please.
