Package: samba
Version: 3.0.14a-2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream patch

Hello,

I think I should put your attention on the partially broken print job
processing on big-endian architectures (ppc, for example). Short story:
because of a bug in variable passing (followed by bitwise operations),
the Samba internal print job IDs get rotated and modified. This, the
queue command of smbclient displays wrong IDs and cancel does not work
at all.

Long story and patch (from Olaf, tested on AIX):

Regards,
Eduard.
