Sorry, it just got lost. The best way to make sure that it
will be in 3.2.2 is to submit a good patch :-)

I have just yesterday taken over bug 5507 which is about that error.
I had been adapting the packaging/RHEL-CTDB/ stuff (due to my
work on that branch), but I have not taken care of the RHEL/ folder.

ok. I'll leave it with you then. If you have questions about
the original packaging, just ping me.

That is right: the link creation in source/bin is fixed,
but the installation of the links is still broken.
It _is_ fixed in the v3-3-test branch which will be used for
3.3.0 (scheduled for December). The changes to the Make file
and configure were just to profound to go into 3.2.X.
Another reason for not picking the changes for 3.2.X is that
packagers already have their workarounds for 3.2.0.
If people complain strongly enough, we could of course re-consider
adding them for 3.2.2... :-)

If "make install" does not work correctly, it should be patched
in 3.2.x I believe. But I haven't followed the discussion thoroughly
so feel to disregard this if it is out of context.

RPM package installation sources of Samba 3.2.1 (STABLE) are available
at ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/samba/STABLE/
Supported SUSE Linux based products currently are SUSE Linux 10.1, 10.2,
10.3, 11.0, SLES 9, SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) Desktop and Server 10,
and factory (i.e. the currently developed product). For some
architectures - like ia64, ppc, s390(x) - you will find a limited
releases subset.
The same package installation sources are also available at
http://download.Samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/SuSE/
Please use a mirror close to your site. A list of Samba.org mirrors is
available at http://Samba.org/ There choose a mirror at the right top
of the page.
There are also a number of SUSE mirrors. A list of mirror sites is
available at http://en.opensuse.org/Mirrors_Released_Version
To support easier collaboration Samba packages are also provided by the
openSUSE Build Service (OBS). Cf. http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/
and http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/samba:/STABLE/
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/samba:/TESTING/
currently is identical to STABLE but will move on soon.
The OBS supports an easy approach to create binary packages for CentOS,
Fedora, Mandriva, RedHat Enterprise (RHEL), SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE),
and openSUSE. Access is possible through https://build.openSUSE.org/
or a subversion-like command line tool named "OpenSUSE build service
command-line" (osc). Bindings to perl are also available. See
http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/CLI
If you encounter any problems with these packages please don't blame the
Samba Team. Instead file a bug to https://bugzilla.Samba.org/, pick
product Samba 3.x, then select 'component' Packaging and set 'assign to'
to samba-maintainers at suse dot de. Or use http://bugzilla.Novell.com/
with the same assignee instead.
For general information about Samba as part of SUSE Linux based products
see http://en.openSUSE.org/Samba For reporting bugs and how to collect
advanced debugging information see http://en.openSUSE.org/Bugs/Samba
Our customers, our products, our responsibility.
Have a lot of fun...

This build will be found soon in openSUSE 11.0 "standard" update repo ?

As indicated above, this has been fixed in v3-3-test more than a
month ago. Here is my mail to samba-technical that explained the
changes and asked whether these should go into 3.2.X.
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2008-July/060074.html
There has been no reply so far. Karolin had expressed concerns about
the depth of the changes to the build system. (It were some 40 or 50
commits, see the list included in the mail.)
On concern I had myself is that the packagers have already put
their workarounds for the broken library install to their
packaging automatisms (just like they had already done before with
libsmbclient).
I, personally, am happy with fixing these things in 3.2.2, but I
did not want do decide it alone.
Btw: One more thing that would really ease the packaging would be
the configure-time separation of libdir and modules dir, so that
the libs can directly be installed into /usr/lib[64]/ while the
modules shoudl go into /usr/lib[64]/samba/.
See bugs #5592 (https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5592)
and #5609 (https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5609).
Any opinions?
Cheers - Michael

I believe one of the reasons why noone seems to want to back-port the
changes in the 3.3 branch to the 3.2 branch is because the changes are so
dramatic. Granted, they do seem to be needed and they are benificial to the
build.
At the same time; I don't believe someone should have to always wait for the
packages to get built or have to stray to terrible lengths to get the shared
libraries for samba to run properly in the system.
I've started another patch that is a bit less dramatic in changes. I
believe we can get away with a few changes to the 3.2 branch without making
such sweeping changes to the make and install process.
In the end, I hope both source builders and packagers alike will like the
compromise without going straight into the experimental development branch
right away.
Thanks for the excellent information.

I'm just a lowly user/sysadmin out here with about 50-70 boxes running
samba not a developer, but I have to agree with Jerry - PLEASE fix the
install - we don't run off RPMS here and build/install from source
here and right now what we have is a package that doesn't install.
I realize that this is freeware but if it was a commercial product you
couldn't ship it with a broken install routine I don't think.....

Jerry, thats good compensation for the pains I had
yesterday in picking and merging the changes from
3-devel to 3-2-test... :-)
