[Bug 1746582] Re: package lvm2 2.02.176-4.1ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: installed lvm2 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

[Yevhen]

I think I have found possible flow to reproduce the issue and workaround
to fix it:

1) sudo apt install lvm2

Here installation finishes successfully.

2) sudo apt remove lvm2

3) sudo apt install lvm2

Here this issue appears.

4) sudo apt purge lvm2

5) sudo apt install lvm2

Here the issue disappears and installation finishes successfully.
