I thought I should also mention that when I downloaded the newer version of ledgersmb (1.4.17-rc1) after untarring it and changing the link, I also re-ran the commands perl Makefile.PL and make test. The tests passed. I'm not sure if it's necessary to perform those steps, but I did.
Please let me know what I am missing.
