The only usage of apt_pkg in ceph-mon appears to be from charms.ceph:
lib/charms_
708: import apt_pkg as apt
It's being used for a simple call to apt.upstream_
Based on the following commit message:
https:/
the apt_pkg interface is not stable across releases, hence charm-helpers has implemented it's own version and triggers this deprecation warning because the charm may have expected apt_pkg.init() to have been called by charmhelpers which it would no longer do although currently it still makes the call as it would lead to a segfault if not.
So actual impact is low but the log message is annoying and the there is an upstream_version method implemented in charmhelpers so we should be able to simply switch to that.
