For future commenters:

TLDR:

https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ceph | From source build (slow)

https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ceph-bin | Pre-built binaries (fast)

Unlike the original community version, this repo builds ceph from source. Ceph is a large, complicated project so this takes several hours on a good build server.

To get a similar experience to how community/ceph worked (pre-built binaries) use ceph-bin instead.

I will continue at least through 2025.

Hopefully Archlinux doesn't push py3.13 before the new year, because I will not be around do a pkgrel for that.

I was just seeing if you were continuing the maintenance on this? I do not mean to pressure you just to ask. Thanks for your work

v18.2.2-3 has been released.

Bringing small fixes to the ceph-volume utility, and usage of python 3.12

The dashboard (and cephadm) functionality remain broken, though there was been some minor movement in PyO3 towards supporting subinterpreters. See {1} for more.

v18.2.2-1 has been released.

The most important aspect of this release is the work done to bypass this mgr issues described in {1}.

With this release we reenable the mgr/dashboard module, and prevent the catastrophic failures from python-bcrypt upgrading to >=0.17 of pyo3.

Unfortunately, the mgr/orch (used by and for cephadm) module remains broken, as I cannot safely patch python-cryptography in a similar fashion to python-bcrypt, as they actually store py objects in global state, making them actually UB in subinterpreters.

One side note for anyone building ceph: the check() is broken for mgr tests at the moment. I'll fix this in a future pkgrel

v18.2.0-2 has been released. This is just a rebuild; as nothing changed, minus some cleanup.

v18.2.0-1 has been released.

the AUR binary packages will come tomorrow

So the release of v18.2.0 is imminent.

There are a lot of changes to the packaging process in this release.

  1. Ceph is broken up into ~35 packages covering the various functionality within -- see (0) for more
  2. We only make install once now, which brings a ~60% decrease in packaging time, shaving something like 8 minutes off the whole build (at least for me)
  3. We no longer add a runtime depends() on java-runtime in the common case. If you were using the cephfs JNI bindings you'll need to explicitly install java-cephfs.
  4. There is a virtual package, ceph-cli for the ceph CLI utility, which is guaranteed to pull in the required package(s) for the CLI.
  5. The ceph mgr dashboard is broken in this release, due to forces beyond my control as a packager. See (1) for more.
  6. There is going to be a divergence between the from source and bin packages in AUR going forward. The bin packages will remain the same as they are currently, covering ceph-libs, ceph and ceph-mgr. This is to prevent the various ceph bin packages from polluting the AUR with almost 3 dozen xxx-bin packages
  7. To alleviate this somewhat, I'll be opening up my private package repo for ceph so you can get prebuilt ceph binaries from there, if you want/need the flexibility of the new packaging changes.
  8. The RBD writeback cache for both PMEM and SSD variants has been enabled with this release, see (2) for more.
  9. I've tested both from v17.2.6 upgrades and from scratch v18.2.0 deployments on Archlinux, everything seems to be in order, and the upstream hasn't found any overly critical bugs, so it seems this x.2.0 is fairly stable by Ceph standards

All in all, this has been about ~2 months worth of work, over about a 7 month time span.

I'm sure there will be bugs, and missing depends, particularly in the python sphere, despite my best efforts; so I'd appreciate any reports on any you find, when you upgrade. Thanks.

@md2prof

patch is a part of the base-devel (0) group, which is assumed to be installed for any packaging activities.

Thank you for taking care of this package! In building on a fresh arch VM I discovered that patch is a dependency to add to your list.

v17.2.6-3 has been released. See https://github.com/bazaah/aur-ceph/releases/tag/v17.2.6-3 for more.
