[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#823272: libsmbclient: [Regression] Perl Filesys::SmbClient fails after move from 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u7 to 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u9

[Spencer S Godfrey]

Package: libsmbclient
Version: 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u9
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

After moving to the current Wheezy Oldstable version of libsmbclient, 
2:3.6.6-6+deb7u9, the use of the Perl module Filesys::SmbClient fails
to read/write to samba shares citing permissions errors. Rolling back 
to the previously installed version, 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u7, allows the perl 
module's read/write interactions to succeed. 


To verify:
I used two systems running the same version of the Perl module,
libfilesys-smbclient-perl, version 3.1-3+b3, and its dependencies. 
On one, I downgraded to libsmbclient version 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u7, and 
the other remained at 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u9 (Oldstable).

The machine with 7u7 installed worked, while the machine with 7u9 did not.
The libsmbclient package is the only package which differed between
the machine's perl module dependencies.


Thanks.
