Bug Description

Xenial amd64 VM running lvm2 commands returns this output:

various vgcreate/lvcreate returns this message:

allocation/use_blkid_wiping=1 configuration setting is set while LVM is not compiled with blkid wiping support.
  Falling back to native LVM signature detection.
  Logical volume "lv2" created.

For example:

$ sudo pvcreate /dev/vdg
  allocation/use_blkid_wiping=1 configuration setting is set while LVM is not compiled with blkid wiping support.
  Falling back to native LVM signature detection.
  Physical volume "/dev/vdg" successfully created

Either we shouldn't set this value by default, or lvm2 should be compiled with the support.
