[Bug 1252375] [NEW] Please remove zentyal-samba + zentyal-printers from trusty

[James Page]

Public bug reported:

Currently blocking migration of samba >= 4 into the release pocket.

Discussed with upstream:

jamespage> jacalvo, hey - zul is working on poking samba @ 4.x into trusty, but its making zentyal uninstallable right now which is blocking migration to the release pocket
<jamespage> jacalvo, are you guys still actively maintaining package in distro? if so could you take a look and see
<jacalvo> jamespage, mmm, the problem is that the zentyal packages in universe are still using samba 3
<jacalvo> and the newer versions of zentyal that use samba4, are using a custom build of samba4 with bundled libraries...
 jacobw jacalvo
 so I'm not sure which is the proper solution here
<jamespage> jacalvo, so the samba4 package will be disappearing - samba is/has been bumped to 4.0.something already
<jamespage> jacalvo, we need to unblock the migration - is this something you can work out in the short term? or should we remove zentyal from archive until you come up with a fix
 ?
<jacalvo> jamespage, let me discuss this with the zentyal devs, I'll get back to you with news as soon as possible ;)
<jamespage> jacalvo, thanks - much appreciated!
<jacalvo> jamespage, so, the removal would be only from the trusty archive, right?
<jamespage> jacalvo, yes - thats correct
 and we can re-introduce later once you have stuff sorted
<jacalvo> I think it's the safest option, we can guarantee a fix in the short term, because currently we depend not only on a custom samba4 package, we also have patched versions of bind9 and openldap :(
 s/we can/we can't/
<jacalvo> first thing to do would be to try to introduce those patches upstream and make it work with the non-bundled version of samba
<jamespage> jacalvo, agreed - OK - I'll request removal
<jacalvo> thanks!, and sorry for the inconvenience
<jacalvo> jamespage, anyway, maybe removing zentyal-samba is enough
<jamespage> jacalvo, np - its all just part of the dev cycle :-)
