Subject: bug#685: Unneeded dependency for systemd-standalone-tmpfiles

From: Klaus Ethgen <[email-masked]>

Package: lvm2
Version: 2.03.15-1
Severity: normal

The new lvm2 package depends on systemd-standalone-tmpfiles which is
not mentioned in changelog and not used anywhere.

Please remove this poisoned dependency. I don't want any systemd
dependency on my system.

This is a violation of the debian package policy!
