Hi, I'm co-maintainer of both jerasure and ceph. If the Debian jerasure package was orphaned, I would be happy to step in and maintain it as a standalone package. Jerasure was packaged without dialog with the jerasure upstream and I can understand that keeping it in sync with what ceph needs is significant work.
