[Pkg-samba-maint] I'm back working on the full Samba 4.0 package

Just as a heads-up, to avoid duplication of effort, I've started work
again on the full Samba 4.0 package.

This package includes everything, the file, print, and AD servers, and
uses the correct smbd file server by default.  It builds correctly on
current sid/experimental, but I still have some issues on install.  

It has now been rebased on top of the 3.6 package, which means we now
include many of the patches from that development stream.  There remains
much work to do however.  In particular, I don't think the shared
library dependencies are working at all.

I'll push it somewhere once I get more significant bandwidth, but I just
wanted to avoid double-work, and get folks interested again. 

One question:

Should manpages for programs in the smbclient package remain in that
package as they do in 3.6, or go with all the other manpages in
samba-doc?

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
