Re: Cephadm has a small wart

Ah. Makes sense. Might be nice if the container build appended
something like "cephadm container" to the redhat-release string,
though.

A more concerning item is that the container is based on CentOS 8
Stream. I'd feel more comfortable if the base OS was more release-
oriented. Especially since Centos8 Stream EOL'ed back around May.

More importantly, the Ceph archives for CentOS 8 went down the Memory
Hole. That's really worrisome. Makes it questionable that it would be
easy to build from source on a blank system now.

Yanking repos is not the Linux Way. I could probably spin up a copy of
CentOS 2, because repos are still online even if no sensible person
would want it for a production server. But not so the CentOS 8
enterprise extensions. They;re gone.
