upgrading to

device-mapper-1.02.107-5.el7_2.2.x86_64

How reproducible:

Deterministic.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have RHEL 7.0, subscribed to CDN.
2. Run yum upgrade --disablerepo='*-rpms' --enablerepo=rhel-7-server-rpms -y device-mapper

Actual results:

# yum upgrade --disablerepo='*-rpms' --enablerepo=rhel-7-server-rpms -y device-mapper

Additional info:
Comment 1 Peter Rajnoha 2016-06-03 10:01:04 UTC 
This was a bug in 7.0 lvm2 spec file (and dependency of lvm2-libs subpackage on device-mapper-event subpackage) and at the same time the fact we moved the blkdeactivate script from lvm2 to device-mapper.

This is resolved in 7.1 (lvm2 2.02.115-3) and later versions of lvm2/device-mapper packages and in 7.3 we're adding Conflicts for the older lvm2-libs so you'll there's now better error message when upgrading from 7.0 to 7.3 which will tell you that you need to upgrade lvm2 as well.

If you do upgrade from 7.0 to 7.2, you have to upgrade lvm2 together with device-mapper so this inconsistency fades away.

(This was already reported as bug #1294128 and bug #1325394)
