Massimiliano Torromeo and/or Jonathan Steel: Just following up to your previous posts below.
Note that for vagrant, you really should use vagrant-installers, rather than using gems/bundler directly for it, if you're going to create a package. Maybe the right way is to add support to vagrant-installers for PKGBUILDs. For ceph, it's a pretty typical conf/make/install. A lot of customization/flexibility should be left for the user in the ceph case, and adding a wiki page would be a good idea as well. Ceph stable releases are approx. every 3 months, so it is predictable and relatively low-maintenance, whereas Vagrant has more bursty releases. If you take ceph, you will probably find it useful to adopt ceph-git in AUR as well.
