The nvme-cli package is recommended by (our) Ceph packages, but here --no-install-recommends is used to avoid pulling in too much.
The issue with not installing nvme-cli is that a "security information" mail notification is triggered by sudo each time Ceph tries to get the device health metrics. While there is a sudoers rule for /usr/sbin/nvme, Ceph uses 'sudo nvme ...', so it does not apply when the package is not installed. This didn't seem to happen with sudo in buster. It's about 1 MiB of additional packages (nvme-cli + uuid-runtime). Signed-off-by: Fabian Ebner <f.eb...@proxmox.com> --- An alternative would be to patch Ceph to use the full /usr/sbin/nvme for its call (not tested).
