[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#1101581: samba: symlink issue in samba 4.22

[Timo van Roermund]

Package: samba
Version: 2:4.22.0+dfsg-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

In samba 4.22, symlinks (wide links) are not working correctly anymore.

Specifically, moving files within a sylink'ed location fails.

I've already reported the issue upsteam. See:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15841

For the moment, I've downgraded to version 4.21.4. In that version, symlinks still work flawlessly.

Cheers,

Timo
