Bug#984595: buster-pu: package samba/2:4.9.5+dfsg-5
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: buster
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu

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.
