1: I am assuming that this is an RPM dependency

Answer / Suggestions

1: Check with whoever built the RPMs you are installing

2: If you have a samba-3.0 packages for your system install them and force
the install with no-deps. So long as a version of samba is installed you
should be OK so long as the HSM rpms put stuff in all the usual locations.

The SAMBA team provides source code to distribution builders (such as Red
Hat and others). What you appear to be looking for is a specific RPM build.
This may or may not be a vanilla compile and may have been tweaked by the
distribution builder. You need the following information:-

Source and name of software you want to install
Distro you are trying to run it on

Once you have this info take it to the mailing list for the distribution you
are tying to install on and the Mailing list for the software you are trying
to install.
