I am trying to run:

git pull .... samba9-2011 & cd samba9-2011 & ./configure & make ...
...

server:/home/v/samba9-2011# ./source4/setup/provision --targetdir
/home/v/pokusySHledanimVSambe/ --interactive
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./source4/setup/provision", line 33, in <module>
    import samba
  File "/home/v/samba4src/source4/scripting/python/samba/__init__.py", line
45, in <module>
    from samba._ldb import Ldb as _Ldb
ImportError: No module named _ldb

The parameters are guessed from actual script where brief description is
provided in help parameter of each option.
