[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#864862: samba: Please build glusterfs vfs module

Source: samba
Version: 2:4.5.8+dfsg-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Do you think it could be possible to build the glusterfs vfs module?

If I'm not wrong there are two issues:

1) The debian package is not providing a library package, the library is
included in the glusterfs-common package which is quite big.

2) I don't think the API is stable

Might be nice to put that module (and the associated manpage which is
already shipped) in a dedicated debian package.

Regards,

Laurent Bigonville
