This is a known issue. We are depending on the upstream (the Ubuntu
distribution in here) to provide Ceph client libraries.
They are, as you noticed, quite outdated in Focal.
If you know of a reliable, official source of newer Ubuntu Ceph client
packages, then let us know.
Otherwise, there are no Kolla Ubuntu images at the moment which have newer Ceph.
