Instructions for building the ceph package for the CentOS Storage SIG can be found in the following places:

Comunity Build System Storage SIG landing page

Before starting, choose the branch containing the maintained spec for the cephadm package:

    git checkout -t origin/c8-sig-storage-ceph-<VERSION>

You can find the sha1 for the "patches_base" comment and "Source0" with "git ls-remote", e.g.

    $ git ls-remote https://github.com/ceph/ceph octopus
    ca0faa0a628c041f5b5313060344006830812e25 refs/heads/octopus

The source code can be downloaded using the 'spectool' tool , which uses the Source0 entry in the SPEC:

    $ spectool -g SPECS/cephadm.spec
    $ mv cephadm SOURCES/cephadm

Create a src.rpm with:

    $ rpmbuild -bs \ --define "_sourcedir $PWD/SOURCES" --define "_srcrpmdir $PWD" \ --define "dist .el8" SPECS/cephadm.spec

and finally we can build it running:

    $ cbs build [--scratch] storage8-ceph-octopus-el8 cephadm.el8.src.rpm
