Title:
  lvm2 (2.03.11-2ubuntu2) hirsute causes failure to boot and drops to
  busybox

Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Today I updated my hirsute packages which included an update to the
  following lvm2 packages:

  Unpacking liblvm2cmd2.03:amd64 (2.03.11-2ubuntu2) over (2.03.07-1ubuntu4)...
  Unpacking lvm2 (2.03.11-2ubuntu2) over (2.03.07-1ubuntu4) ...
  Unpacking dmeventd (2:1.02.175-2ubuntu2) over (2:1.02.167-1ubuntu4) ...

  Immediately after the update I rebooted and noticed my hirsute
  installation would no longer boot and dropped me into a busybox shell.

  I was able to downgrade these packages to the previous version which restored proper booting.
  I'm using LVM + luks/cryptsetup so I'm not sure if the filesystem encryption is related or not.

  Also I went ahead and tested this on a clean hirsute installation
  using the daily build on a KVM instance with UEFI + LVM +
  luks/cryptsetup and as soon as the installation finished it fails to
  boot into Ubuntu on the first try as it installs the lvm2
  2.03.11-2ubuntu2 packages during installation so this is an easily
  reproducible bug.

  Regards
