The problem is with the LVM version that comes with the stock install. This is the version:
LVM Version: 2.03.05(2) Library Version: 1.02.163
Where did you get this? My F31 has librarys /usr/lib64/libdevmapper-event-lvm2.so.2.03 /usr/lib64/liblvm2cmd.so.2.03 from lvm2-libs. Are you looking at a different library?
Driver Configuration: 4.40.0
What is this a driver for? Where did it come from? You need to include more information.
Using a linux distro that uses a more recent version solves the problem. For me, I used ArcoLinux which uses a more recent version by default:
LVM version: 2.02.186(2) Library version: 1.02.164 Driver Version: 4.41.0
The driver are however updated in Fedora after a fresh install my running sudo dnf upgrade or my upgrading from the Software Centre.
Yes, just as a general rule, always update immediately after install. The install image has gone through testing, so is frozen at some moment in the past. But updates continue piling up, and bugs continue getting fixed, even while testing is going on; they just don't make it to the image, or testing would never finish. So, if you have a problem, first update everything to the latest versions, and test again.
