Peter, All,

On 2019-11-13 16:17 +0100, Peter Korsgaard spake thusly:
> lvm2 is licensed under GPL-2.0, which is not license compatible with
> readline (GPL-3.0+), so drop the optional dependency and add a comment
> explaining why.
> 
> Notice: The readline support is only used when the raw lvm tool is called
> without arguments.

> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <peter at korsgaard.com>

Applied to master, thanks.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
