Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2007-11-10 12:17:53 UTC 
You can probably get around this by executing 

/usr/sbin/lvm help | cat
Comment 3 Olle Liljenzin 2007-11-10 13:11:31 UTC 
Yes, I get the output if I pipe stderr.

But 'lvm help' was just a simplified example. Some commands are interactive,
e.g. lvremove, and I also suspect stdin being detached by selinux.

Sorry

The packages are the same as we get from rhn?

Unfortunately they don't fix this bug.
