Dear Maintainer,

I noticed that the group policy tool (/usr/sbin/samba-gpupdate) in Debian is
stored in the samba package. This seems to be a poor choice of placement as
group policies are expected to be applied on all domain joined hosts, and you
can join a domain with just the samba-common-bin and sssd-ad packages, but the
samba package is only installed if the SMB file server component is required.

How would you join a computer without main samba component to a domain, and how
would you process group policy in this case?
