I think that I agree. I stumbled on it because winexe failed to
configure because linking with libsamba-credentials0 did not work out:

['/usr/bin/gcc', 'test.c.1.o', '-o', '/build/winexe-v9pVVt/winexe-1.1~20130620/source/build/.conf_check_8c42439781f5a6c56baf7f8b9c378202/testbuild/testprog', '-Wl,-Bstatic', '-Wl,-Bdynamic', '-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba', '-lcli-ldap']
err: /usr/bin/ld: warning: libdbwrap.so, needed by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsamba-credentials.so.0, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsamba-credentials.so.0: undefined reference to `dbwrap_fetch at SAMBA_4.0.6_DEBIAN'
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsamba-credentials.so.0: undefined reference to `dbwrap_local_open at SAMBA_4.0.6_DEBIAN'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

(I'm using the package from git in branch samba_4.0 but it's the same)

I worked around it by adding a fake build-depends on python-samba.

Cheers,
