This is quite the problem. We rely on hostnames that are assigned to builds. For ceph-deploy builds, these hostnames are
like:

• gitbuilder-cdep-rpm
• gitbuilder-cdep-deb
• tala
• mira

This approach is very broken. If we have concurrent builds, the script in ceph-deploy removes data assuming it is the only host that will ever build for ceph-deploy synchronously.

If we are building ceph packages at the same time in, say, a mira host, the build script for ceph-deploy might execute things like these:

        rm -rf debian-repo
        rm -rf dist
        rm -f *.changes *.dsc *.gz *.diff

For now, the "solution" is to just add a host that has a hostname that works for this broken logic.

The actual fix is to work towards ephemeral hosts for the build, which will need significant hours dedicated to it.
