hi Ernesto and lists,

> [1] https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/47501

are we planning to backport this to quincy so we can support centos 9
there? enabling that upgrade path on centos 9 was one of the
conditions for dropping centos 8 support in reef, which i'm still keen
to do

if not, can we find another resolution to
https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/58832? as i understand it, all of
those python packages exist in centos 8. do we know why they were
dropped for centos 9? have we looked into making those available in
epel? (cc Ken and Kaleb)
