Package: lvm2
Version: 2.02.44-3
Severity: normal

When my machine boots, I get this:
File descriptor 3 (pipe:[9430]) leaked on lvmdiskscan invocation. Parent PID 3608: bash

After it has booted, whenever I give an lv... command, I always get
something like that:

mordor:/home/gpall# lvdisplay
File descriptor 3 (pipe:[9430]) leaked on lvdisplay invocation. Parent PID
10427: bash
  --- Logical volume ---
  LV Name                /dev/evg/root
  VG Name                evg
  LV UUID                ttp166-h21j-D93z-GAfM-8r2s-3C9Q-uSZPla

Could that be fixed?

Other than that, everything seemt to work just fine...
