WTF, how does ceph-debuginfo manage to be twice as large as even qt5-
qtwebengine-debuginfo (which I thought was huge!)???
While it seems as if raw size isn't the problem, in answer to your
question see the below diagram showing how the 5.1GB (uncompressed)
size is used.

Basically there are 137 binaries -- most seem to be test programs --
and each one has a copy of the debug symbols from ceph. In total this
makes up ~ 4GB. See also the attached file.
It seems as if either removing the ceph-test subpackage entirely or
somehow removing debuginfo generation for this subpackage would save a
great deal of space.
However, since it's debuginfo I think it's pointless to try to
optimize this.
