Hi all,

Last days change on samba now produce this error while compiling on a 
debian squeeze 6, when a checkout of the 13th of march worked well:

installing libpopt-dev solves the problem, but as I understand we should 
use the built-in version of libpopt when not told to do otherwise (or 
when headers of this libs are not available).
