Hi,

Basically I've got the source packages from debian unstable (before
experimental) and tried to remove the multiarch modifications (I did the
build on squeeze). When I hit a wall (mean unmet dependency) I've tried
to get newer sources (sometimes from upstream (samba.org)) changed the
version numbers (dch -i) accordingly and started over.

Cheers

Geza
