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.
