[Ceph-users] Ceph packages for Debian buster

We've been using ceph on Debian for several years now, and would really like seeing official packages for buster. We recently resorted to building our own Luminous packages for buster (based on the Ubuntu packages), due to the fact that: * We've already upgraded our clusters to 12.2.12 , and the debian.org packages offer 12.2.11 . * The official ceph packages for stretch are built against libcurl3, which has been removed in buster in favor of libcurl4 . Sage stated last year that Luminous and Nautilus (and possibly Mimic) packages for buster should be provided at some point (http://lists.ceph.com/pipermail/ceph-users-ceph.com/2018-June/027478.html), and we really hope that this decision hasn't been reverted - a lot of Debian users are looking forward to being able to upgrade their clusters to a newer release. We also believe having official Luminous packages will allow most Debian users who've kept their systems up-to-date to have a clean upgrade path. We are aware of croit's Nautilus packages for buster and have played around with them (thanks!), but would rather go with official packages in our production clusters, preferably built against python3 (for bonus points ;) ). We're also undecided regarding whether we should go straight to Nautilus, mainly due to the fact Mimic seems like the more stable choice for the time being. We'd be happy and willing to assist in any way we can.
