Hi Nikos,

At the moment that is only possible by building from source from my
private git-repo.

The current dev-package got snapshotted beginning of May, which was
before the release of rbd-ggate.
I'll probably make another snapshot beginning of july, and that'll
include the module (and all the other ceph-stuff)

And note that I've not yet tested it in any serious way, other than that
it loads.
