Hi Michael,

Thank you for you comments.

Lukas Nussbaum suggests to remove Authen::Smb via debian/rules. I
think this is the better solution than repacking the source.

I think i've seen somewhat in the man to exclude some filename
patterns but didn't check it further. But i will.

The problem is, Apache2::AuthenNTLM depends on Authen::Smb >= 0.95 (as
seen in AuthenNTLM.pm). So it ships 0.96 with the source. But the
Authen::Smb upstream at CPAN is only 0.91.

I wrote Will Lowe asking how to handle this problem. I don't know how.
Maybe i should conflict with libauthen-smb-perl (< 0.91) and provide
it with libapache2-authenntlm-perl? (different binaries?)
But how can i handle the different versions (0.02 vs 0.96)?

Bye
Hendrik
