First, sorry if this is the wrong product classification for this bug-report:
it is my first.

I'm trying to install a Ceph storage cluster among several machines. However,
I'm surprised that while most of the Ceph software is available for Leap 15.0,
precisely ceph-deploy (the first command needed to create the cluster) is not
yet available on it or on the repositories. I have even the man pages for it,
from some other ceph-related package already installed, but not the program
itself.

In the opensuse website software search I found that there is a version for
Leap 42.3, and I gave it a try. Despite the fact that it even installs in 15.0
without disrupting the system too much (only one package needed, no
dependencies), it will fail at its first job as follows:

I guess it is some version incompatibility issue for this error, since it is
obviously provided for a different opensuse version. However, at the actual
state, a ceph storage server cannot be built using opensuse leap 15.0 (what I
guess can be considered a bug, at least since it is provided I would expect it
to be possible do employ).

Are there plans for actual version of ceph-deploy to be provided any time soon?
I really don't have any idea of who is responsible for these packages. Any
possible workaround to be suggested in the mean time?

Thanks a lot for any help or information provided.
