The cephadm "binary" is limited to supporting the lowest common python version available on all the supported platforms. It runs outside of a container context. So currently the binary is limited in what python stdlib modules and languages features. I'd personally be interested in being able to use python versions newer than Python 3.6. The current refactoring project and the "compiled" cephadm make are on track to make it supporting older Python a little less burdensome as we'll be able to eventually use a small curated set of non-stdlib dependencies. But there are good language level improvements (newer type hinting syntax comes to mind) that I'd personally like to use. > I don't think we track it via the telemetry, but it would be nice to know > how many users are cephadm vs packages. > Yes please :-) > BTW, is the container image already based on steam 9 for Reef and Squid? > I just double checked main branch CI images - they're based on Centos 8 Stream.
