[Bug 1807177] Re: Package samba-vfs-modules missing file glusterfs.so

[Andreas Hasenack]

Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.

The Ubuntu samba build does not contain glusterfs support because the
glusterfs packages are in the Universe pocket, and samba is in main. As
such it cannot depend on glusterfs.

In bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glusterfs/+bug/1274247,
an attempt was made to bring glusterfs into main, but it was rejected.

** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix

Title:
  Package samba-vfs-modules missing file glusterfs.so

Status in samba package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  ENVIRONMENT
  ~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
  Release:        18.04

  $ apt-cache policy samba-vfs-modules

  EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
  I expected file `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/vfs/glusterfs.so` to be installed.

  
  ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
  The file is not present.  I asked on the Samba mailing list and they confirmed (https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2018-December/219821.html) that this file is missing from all of the Ubuntu Samba packages (https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=cosmic&arch=any&searchon=contents&keywords=glusterfs.so).  (As I look at the search results on that last page, it appears to be missing for Trusty, Xenial, Bionic, Cosmic, and Disco.)
