[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#563845: gnome-disk-utility: lists LVM logical volumes as physical disks

[brian m. carlson]

Package: gnome-disk-utility
Version: 2.28.1-2
Severity: normal

When I run gnome-disk-utility, all of my LVM logical volumes are listed
as hard disks.  Although they are block devices, they cannot be usefully
used as hard disks: they cannot be partitioned and SMART cannot be run
on them.

LVM logical volumes should be listed as logical volumes, preferably
under the volume group of which they are a part.
