Hi!
After this somewhat strange attempt to build libldb and related packages
out of samba sources, I wonder if we should do the same with other libraries
of the same nature, - talloc, tevent, and tdb, - too.
This has its drawbacks as ldb package demonstrated. But this also has its good
sides, - which is a much simpler maintenance.
The only real thing which bothers me is the lack of tests.
We don't run samba testsuite (already discussed). But we can run at least the
common libraries testsuite. For one, we can run ldb testsuite.
I wonder if it is possible to do when ldb is built as part of samba build...
