Further investigation confirms this.

The i386 version of the samba package in Debian was built without
Kerberos support. Indeed, this build was done by me and this is what
was uploaded to the Debian archive. *That* build is the one that sucks
(for a reason I can't explain yet: I built as usual, with pbuilder in
a chroot).

Packages in Debian unstable for other architectures are correct.

If I rebuild the Debian package on my machine *now*, it is also
correctly linked to the Kerberos libraries.

We will probably solve this with a binNMU on i386 (Debian jargon: we
will ask the autobuilder to rebuild the i386 package). Waiting for
Steve Langasek's advice....

For people who are hit hard by this and still want 3.0.25, I have put
locally built packages on http://people.debian.org/~bubulle/samba

Please be aware that the -2 release is likely to prevent you to
upgrade to further official versions of the package. I rebuilt these
packages in a hurry. You have been warned...:)
