All,

I'm working on a project with a fairly strict no GPLv3 policy. While lvm2 is fine since it is GPLv2, the lvm2 dependency on bash, which is GPLv3, is causing a problem. It appears that bash is used mostly for test scripts as well as lvmdump.sh and fsadm.sh. If we don't need to use those two utilities, would there be any other major issues with removing bash a a dependency if I were to go down that path?

Drew when you say "without bash as a dependency", do you mean....
A) Getting lvm3 installed without the presence of the prereq bash package?
... or do you mean...
B) Removing the bash package and the shell executable after lvm3 is up and running?

Thanks.... Nick Geovanis
