There is a python script ceph-rest-api. Where is this used? Why does
it warrant a dependency on 20 other packages?

Not sure right now. It looks like a random dash of tools, stashed
together without much thinking.
- ceph, rados, rbd: Tools to manage different parts of ceph, remotely.
- ceph-authtool: Works on keyring files, so needs to run locally on the
monitor.
- ceph-rest-api: Where does this belong to?
- ceph-dencoder, ceph-syn: This are test or debugging tools.
I would
- move ceph-authotool and maybe ceph-rest-api into ceph,
- move cephfs and mount.ceph into ceph-common
- move ceph-dencoder and ceph-syn into ceph-test,
- move stuff from ceph-resource-agents into ceph and
- drop ceph-fs-common and ceph-resource-agents.

Yeah. But why does it need a different package? What does this extra
package bring for the user?

Because ceph-disk (another incompletely documented indirection) uses it.
The important parts (ceph-mon, ceph-osd) works fine without it.

Not a concern for Debian. It was never in a stable release.

At least the dependencies for librados2 and librdb1 needs to be
stricter. The dependency on libcephfs1 is missing.
- Symbols files are missing.
