[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#677636: samba4: fails to install - libsecurity.so not found

[R. Scott Bailey]

Package: samba4
Version: 4.0.0~beta1+dfsg1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

I recently attempted to install the samba4 package on my system; this fails
persistently with the following output:

Setting up samba4 (4.0.0~beta1+dfsg1-1) ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/samba/setup/provision", line 33, in <module>
    import samba
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samba/__init__.py", line 50, in <module>
    from samba._ldb import Ldb as _Ldb
ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/libsecurity.so: version `SAMBA_4.0.0ALPHA17' not found (required by /usr/local/samba/lib/libsamba-credentials.so.0)
dpkg: error processing samba4 (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1


Repeated attempts (unsurprisingly) fail the same way. I see that the
libsecurity.so library actually exists and is provided by libndr-standard0
referenced below, but evidently it is not a pleasing version. ;-)

I am clueless on how to proceed but happy to test if there is any guidance
to be found.

Thanks,
-Scott
