Package: samba Version: 2:3.3.1-1 Severity: serious Tags: patch Justification: no longer builds from source
Hi, Package samba/2:3.2.5-4 released in Debian r5.0/lenny contains bug 495081 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=495081) upstream bug 5826 that was fixed in package samba/2:3.3.0-1. This bug introduces a serious backwards compatibility problems with Samba 3.x clients and 2.0.x servers which exist in number in the field (including NAS, PDAs such as Zaurii and embedded devices). Upgrading to the testing (squeeze) version of the package, version 2:3.3.1-1, by building of source fails. This is because although samba sources depend on the ctdb library which both lenny and squeeze provide, the configure script of version 2:3.3.1-1 package does not detect the ctdb_private.h header included in the 1.0.47+git200807111148-1 (lenny) version of the package. Upgrading the ctdb package to the 1.0.73-1 version (squeeze) resolves the problem. The proposed patch adds this constraint upon testing's dependencies lest a modification of the configure script be seen as a better solution.
