Bug#880737: lvm2: postinst script with err message in output logs

[Boyuan Yang]

Package: lvm2
Version: 2.02.176-1
Severity: normal

I just upgraded to lvm2/2.02.176-1 and noticed some strange logs in the output
when postinst is run.

Reproducing the problem is simple. After complete installation of package lvm2,
do as follows:

# dpkg-reconfigure lvm2
update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
Syntax: /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke <action> <unit file> [<unit file> ...]
Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.130) ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.13.0-1-amd64

Obviously something went wrong when /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke was called.

I'm not sure if it is a bug of lvm2 or init-system-helpers so I'm reporting it
here against lvm2 to get things started.

Thanks,
Boyuan Yang
