libblockdev bug fix and enhancement update

Published Feb 16, 2021 · Updated Aug 11, 2021

Summary

The libblockdev packages provide a C library with GObject introspection
support used for low-level operations on block devices. The library serves
as a thin wrapper around plug-ins for specific functionality, such as LVM,
Btrfs, LUKS, or MD RAID.

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

* libblockdev doesn't run external utilities with LC_ALL=C and fails to
parse their localized output (BZ#1895286)
