Hello Fernando,

I only opened this thread for discussion as you wanted others to see if
it failed for them as well.

I do not think that from reading Pierre's answer that he is specifically
going to try to solve the samba test suite issue.

I am in no hurry to say that the program does not have a working test
suite.

I am not even sure of the number of people who actually run the tests
anyway.

Regards,

Christopher.
