Has there been any progress with making ceph python3 compatible in
Debian? from a very very quick glance at the code on github, it looks
like the python code is already compatible with py3k, so is it just a
matter of updating the debian packaging to use python3 modules or is
there more work to it?

One of Bullseye goals it to remove python2 from Debian, and ceph --
being a large code base -- still depends on several other py2
packages, which we cant remove until we port ceph to py3k

Thanks for maintaining ceph in debian!
