It would make some amount of sense for libsmbclient to depend on samba-common which provides the working smb.conf; but since we haven't done that before now and no one complained, it seems to not be that important. libsmbclient-dev, however, should certainly not depend on samba-common AFAICS. The change was introduced by Jelmer when splitting samba-common, but I can't see why. Jelmer, do you remember if this was intentional and has some hidden purpose I can't spot? -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
