Hi

Please consider first to use the recent/upstream version of lvm2
(ATM either 2.02.187  or  2.03.10 or git  master/stable-2.0)

Unfortunately we can't be analyzing all the bugs from all the versions out there.

So please try to provide reproducer with versions listed above.
If you can't reproduced - then you may try to bisect to discover fixing patch.

If you need to fix a particular version on your distro,
you may need to ask your package maintainer to backport
list of patches for you.
In some case however this might be hard - aka it might be more efficient
to simply go with newer version.

Regards
