I've gotten the backported Fedora Rawhide Samba-4.0.3 package to
build on SL 6. Woo-hoo for me. I don't have a good test environment
for it, since my last contract ended and I don't have access to a lot
of test hosts. The critical components to modify are:
* Use init scripts instead of systemd.
* Don't pre-deploy documentation into /usr/share/doc/samba-4.0.3
and expect to add it from there, put them in packaging /RHEL/. and add
from there instead.
* Use "/var/run/samba" instead of "/run/samba" on systems without systemd.
* Provide updated versions of the the following components,
backported from Fedora rawhide or Fedora 18 as necessary:
iniparser-3.1 # not present in RHEL 6
krb5-1.10 # update needed, conflicts with current IPA
The following RPM's need to be built, and installed, in this order due
dependencies.
libtalloc-2.0.8
libtdb-1.2.11
libldb-1.1.15
libtevent-0.9.17
I'll start pushing these up to https://github.com/nkadel/ for others
to play with, along with the "mock" and "yum" structures I use for
building and accessing these.
