Package: ceph
Version: 0.94.2-1
Severity: serious

0.94.2-1 no longer uses "libjerasure". As per changelog entry:

    d/p/use_system_jerasure.patch,d/control: Drop use of libjerasure
    as the patch is intrusive and expensive to maintain; will revisit if
    adopted upstream.

My reading of the above is that maintainer decided not to inconvenient himself 
with maintaining existing patch because using system library is not important 
enough?

I'm concerned about such attitude.
Please stop using bundled (in-)convenience copy and switch to system 
"libjerasure" again.

Please remember about policy ยง4.13:

Thanks.
