Closing then. Feel free to reopen if you have a way to reproduce it.

Unfortunately, I cannot check it: i met this problem while installing my main system, after facing it I used another partitioning (separate /boot and LVM on a partition), so I cannot test it on my main system. In virtualbox this problem doesn't reproduce even with the same packages' versions.

Do you see it with current GIT master? It should not even invoke vgs unless it is built without device-mapper support.

I have a system with LVM-partitioning on EFI. I have no separate /boot partition, but I have 100mib fat32 partition for /boot/efi.

Every time I run grub-install, i see the following error:
" File descriptor 4 (/dev/sdb1) leaked on vgs invocation. Parent PID blablabla: grub-install" where /dev/sdb1 is my "/boot/efi" partition, which is outside LVM and is mounted.

I tried creating a separate /boot partition (/dev/sdc1) and if I unmount /dev/sdb1 from /boot/efi, then mount /dev/sdc1 to /boot and then /dev/sdb1 to /boot/efi and run grub-install - I experience no problems. But if I unmount all these partitions and mount /boot/efi to /boot (without separate /boot) I experience this problem again.
