Dear colleagues, Please accept the proposed update of samba in buster / buster-security after the fix closing #984486 gets merged by Mathieu and uploaded to stable queue. [ Reason ] I encountered the missing header include within libsmbclient-dev trying to do a no-change rebuild of ffmpeg 4.3.2 for buster-backports. The problem has been reported to Samba upstream by Gentoo maintainers two years ago there: https://bugs.gentoo.org/666548 and the only contribution I made in re this bug is adapting the patch for Debian's samba source tree: https://salsa.debian.org/samba-team/samba/-/merge_requests/51 [ Impact ] ffmpeg >= 4.3.1-8 will FTBFS due to re-added libsmbclient build-dependency [ Tests ] Build passes, built package from my unofficial Kodi from Debian repo is tested by me & other (several dozen) users. [ Risks ] The risk is low because: * It is a header-only change * It has been accepted by upstream 2 years ago * I confirmed ffmpeg builds fine with modified samba package * Quite many unofficial repo users [ Checklist ] [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] One patch added, debian/patches/fix-timeval.patch that includes <time.h> into source3/include/libsmbclient.h [ Other info ] Debdiff will be added after MR gets merged.
