Re: [aur-general] Move vagrant and ceph to [community]?
Did anyone step up for ceph? I have been messing with that and was working on adding modules and states to salt. If no one has stepped up I will look into moving it this weekend probably.

I have started looking at the best way to package it. I'll propose my changes to you once I'm happy with it and if you would be happy to maintain it in the AUR for a little time (or I could take over it) to allow people to test the changes before moving it to [community] I think that would be best.

What's your opinion on how the packages ruby-vagrant and vagrant-git do it? Before I even looked at those, that's the approach I was going for. -- Jonathan Steel

I have some work in progress on my github: https://github.com/mtorromeo/archlinux-packages/tree/master/ceph I need to add the systemd service files and do a little testing. Feel free to go ahead and move it yourself if you want, I don't think I'll have time to test it in the next few days.
+1 for vagrant, it's really useful! -1 for ceph, I experienced data loss last time I tried it on a small test-cluster. (Reported a bug. It's probably fixed now, but I still don't trust it). Jonathan, if you should be interested in feedback/comments/PKGBUILD testing in connection with vagrant, I would be happy to help out. -- Sincerely, Alexander Rødseth xyproto / TU

I support adding Ceph. There are professional appliances based on Ceph. We have a cluster running (in my company) since one year and we didn't have lost any data. Here, using it in production is not the point. Having Ceph in community would help to test and use remote cluster from Arch. So, +1.

I notice that the AUR ceph package installs non-systemd initscripts, would moving this package to community upset some of the anti-systemd users, or would the non-systemd initscripts be kept as a part of the package or split off to an independent AUR package? In any case, I'd like to see ceph re-uploaded with devtools-friendly files (i.e. 644 permissions instead of 600). The inclusion into community/ would be nice, if only because ceph takes a relatively long time to compile. Cheers, WorMzy
I wouldn't upload the AUR package, I have my own version of the package in progress that I linked here before.

Separate AUR package as usual, there is no old rc.d support in official package. anti-systemd users are upset from the start. Anyway, they moved to FreeBSD when we made the switch. Cheers, -- Sébastien "Seblu" Luttringer https://seblu.net | Twitter: @seblu42 GPG: 0x2072D77A
