[karmic] encrypted LVM2 partition in hard-drive shown in Naulitus when all logical volumes are already mounted

[andbelo]

Binary package hint: gvfs

I am filing this bug against gvfs but I'm not sure.

I used the alternate-CD to install karmic beta on my laptop. I chose manual partition and installed ubuntu into a full encrypted hard-drive with LVM2 containing some mount points. After regular boot Nautilus keeps showing a drive icon of the LVM2 (unlocked and unmounted) and also "File System" (see screenshot). The former shouldn't actually be shown as the mount-points are all already mounted.

The hard drive is /dev/sda.
/dev/sda1 is an ext4 partition with the /boot mount point.
/dev/sda2 is the encrypted LVM2 partition.

Nautilus shows the icon as "250 GB Hard Disk: 250 GB LVM2 Physical Volume", which is /dev/mapper/sda2_crypt.

I did the default full disk encryption when I installed Ubuntu 9.10 amd64. It's annoying to have the physical volume listed in the Nautilus list of Places. Ubuntu 9.04 did not have this problem.

Same here, installed 9.10 server with whole disk encryption (except 255MB /boot), then apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and now I see 250GB LVM2 Physical Volume on the left hand side in the side window ("places").
