[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#1085617: samba package has obsolete file /etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc

[Michael Tokarev]

Hi!

Please do test the updated samba packages.

I implemented the changes 2 days ago already but tried to test
it in various combinations before uploading the new release to
debian, - and had to do a few tweaks already.

Current revision should work in an expected way not only when
upgrading from old (pre-ad-dc-split) samba to current, but also
should clean leftover things up when upgrading from past-split
samba to current.  With and without samba-ad-dc installed at
the same time (it is especially important to not remove the
startup files when they're actually in use for samba-ad-dc).
And with and without AD-DC actually being in use and configured
or not.

Hopefully I got it all correctly.

Initially I didn't bother with all this since SysV startup
scripts are kinda obsolete these days and I didn't want to
pay significant attention to it.

Also, with this new samba release, I added samba-ad-dc to
the Recommends: of samba - so with default settings (which
is to install recommended packages), on upgrade, people will
have the new samba-ad-dc package installed too, - this will
ensure existing ad-dc setups wont be broken.  Yes, it means
more unused packages (also for new installs) for people who
only need file-server functionality without active directory,
but it is easy to remove and it's better to play safe than
sorry.

Thanks,
