FWIW Remaining todo items for the experimental branch before we can do
an upload:

 * re-enable ctdb support and merge with the ctdb packages
 * remove circular dependencies between samba and samba-libs:
     W: samba source: intra-source-package-circular-dependency python-samba
     samba samba-common-bin samba-dsdb-modules samba-libs
