This should be standard procedure for new releases. Numerous linux
distributions already operate this way to make sure mirrors get copes before
the thundering herds do upgrades.

Subject: [ceph-users] Re: Pacific 16.2.14 debian Incomplete
This is more the sentiment that I was hoping to convey.
Sure, I have my finger on the pulse of the mailing list and the packages coming
down the pipe, but assuming that everyone does and/or will is not a safe
assumption.
At the minimum, publishing the versioned repos at $repourl/debian-16.2.14 but
not cutting the symlink over for $repourl/debian-pacific until “ready” seems
like a very easy and useful release process improvement to prevent these
specific issues going forward.
Likewise, $repourl/rpm-pacific is already pointing to $repourl/rpm-16.2.14 as
well, so its not a debian specific issue, albeit it looks like there were no
issues with missing packages on el8.
But the packages were still “pre-released” before we are supposed to use them.
Anything making it to $repourl/{deb,rpm}-$named_release should be “safe.”
Because the
documentation<https://docs.ceph.com/en/pacific/install/get-packages/#configure-repositories-manually>
uses the named repos, as it should, and right now the documentation is
effectively broken.
ubuntu@mini-pacific:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list ; sudo apt update
| grep ceph ; sudo apt install ceph ceph-osd ceph-mon ceph-mgr
deb https://download.ceph.com/debian-pacific/ focal main

Please don't do any upgrades before we send an announcement email.
Then stop pushing packets before the announcement. This is not the first time
this problem occurred. And given your answer I'm afraid it won't be the last
time.
It can't be that hard to coordinate releases.....
