Bloatware is a luxury I cannot afford on embedded systems with limited resources where every KB and CPU cycle is accounted for. I would rather submit my recipe for a proper samba source configuration and have the maintainer do the compiling of a flavored version, but I already had negative feedback. The maintainer is dogmatic on having an obese package instead of a lean one that delivers the same functionality without the extra fat.
