    Why are there different packages being built for SuSE between the
samba.org repo and the ftp.sernet.de repo??? Specifically, here are the
differences:

www.samba.org binaries for SuSE 10.0 not included in sernet.de:

cifs-mount-3.0.25b-1.1.72.i586.rpm
ldapsmb-1.34b-80.1.72.i586.rpm
libmsrpc-3.0.25b-1.1.72.i586.rpm
libmsrpc-devel-3.0.25b-1.1.72.i586.rpm
samba-krb-printing-3.0.25b-1.1.72.i586.rpm
samba-pdb-3.0.25b-1.1.72.i586.rpm
samba-python-3.0.25b-1.1.72.i586.rpm
samba-vscan-0.3.6b-4.12.72.i586.rpm

ftp.sernet.de binaries for SuSE 10.0 not included in the samba.org binaries:

samba3-cifsmount-3.0.25c-33.i586.rpm
samba3-debuginfo-3.0.25c-33.i586.rpm
samba3-doc-3.0.25c-33.i586.rpm
samba3-utils-3.0.25c-33.i586.rpm

    Obviously, the only one that is troublesome is the cifsmount
package. Won't the naming difference screw up the Yast database by
allowing two different versions of cifs to be installed under different
package names?? Or, is Yast smart enough to figure that out?  Just a
curiosity...
